The Elam Drake House is a historic house in Columbus, Ohio, United States. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.[1] The two-story brick building was constructed in 1856. It features a one-story north end, built in 1856, with a 1.5-story addition to the south, built between 1856 and 1857. The farmstead, including a barn, summer kitchen, and smoke house, was built by a Elam Drake, a former brick layer and plasterer who retired to take up farming in 1856. The site stands as an example of farmstead structures typical of the 19th century.[2]
