The Lansdowne House is a historic house in Greenville, Ohio, United States. Built in 1870, it was the residence of Zachary Lansdowne, who was a pioneer in the development of the U.S. Navy's airship program and commanded the airship Shenandoah. A native of Greenville, Lansdowne attended the United States Naval Academy upon graduating from Greenville High School;[1] as Shenandoah's skipper, he was killed in its crash on September 3, 1925.[2]
Architecturally, the Lansdowne House is unremarkable. It is a simple two-story rectangular frame structure, topped with a shingled roof and supported by a foundation of limestone.[3]
In 1979, the Lansdowne House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It qualified to be added to the Register because of its connection to Zachary Lansdowne.
