The Presbyterian Orphanage of Missouri, a historic district in Farmington, Missouri, comprises five brick buildings erected between 1939 and the early 1950s in the Georgian Revival style. The complex includes the Administration Building and Dining Hall (1939, later enlarged), two dormitories—Dearing Hall and Harlan Hall—built in the early 1950s, and Holmes Cottage, a smaller hospital building constructed in 1940. Originally established as a Presbyterian children's home, the organization vacated the site in 1999 and subsequently merged with a Texas charity, becoming Presbyterian Children's Homes and Services. The Liberty Street campus was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2006 and now operates as an apartment complex for senior citizens.
