English: The Ely House (1896) at 205 N. Prospect Avenue in Madison, Wisconsin, was commissioned by Richard T. Ely, nationally known economist and professor at the University of Wisconsin. In the academic freedom case involving Ely's allegedly radical views, the university's Board of Regents vindicated him and broadly endorsed "that continual and fearless sifting and winnowing by which alone the truth can be found." Designed in the Georgian Revival style by Chicago architect Charles Sumner Frost, the house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.
