  • History of Maney Park

    The spread of the Downtown commercial area and the general deterioration of residential housing contingent to the Central Business District have virtually destroyed all of Oklahoma City’s turn-of-the century homes.

    One remarkable Victorian mansion built in 1904 has escaped the bulldozer. It was owned by a remarkable man who came to Oklahoma in the year of the Run. His ability as an engineer saved the home from an otherwise certain destruction. The Maney House was originally built at 917 N. Robinson. Soon after its construction, urban congestion began taking its toll on the residential area. The Oklahoma High School, now Central Innovative School, and several large churches began to surround the home.

    In 1909, Mr. Maney decided to move the home to the country, at Northwest Eleventh and Shartel, where it now stands. His experience as one of America’s great railroad and bridge builders helped him move the large home to its present location. The home remained a residence until 1945. The Maney family permitted the house be used for Catholic Charities and then rented it to a woman that operated it as a boarding house until the mid 1970’s.

    In 1979, Mr. Bill Bleakley bought the house and did extensive renovation to the structure. The third floor was converted into law offices and at two different times, restaurants were located in the basement until 1985, when Mr. Bleakley converted that space, the first and third floors for the aspiring Gazette Newspaper. As Mr. Bleakley began to outgrow the Maney House Mansion, he contacted Bob & Claudia Wright who had owned and operated a bed and breakfast at another location for eight years and asked if they would be interested in using the Maney House as a bed and breakfast.

    In January, 1997, The Maney House became one of Oklahoma City’s most beautiful historic mansions, The Grandison at Maney Park, A Bed & Breakfast Inn.
