Developer Mark Farha, here seated on the steps of the Fairmount Cottage, and his partners have been buying property in the neighborhood for about 20 years. His company does renovation work, and its properties cater to the Wichita State student population. The Fairmount Cottage, thought to be designed by the prominent local firm of Proudfoot and Bird, is built in the Queen Anne style and was constructed in 1888.
