The Ulysses G. Orendorff House is a Prairie School single-family home at 345 West Elm Street in Canton, Illinois, built in 1902 for Ulysses G. Orendorff, son of Parlin & Orendorff co-founder W. J. Orendorff. Chicago architect Robert C. Spencer, a former apprentice of Frank Lloyd Wright, designed it as he moved away from his earlier Tudor work. Its two front gables carry a wooden grid that resembles half-timbering but reflects the horizontal emphasis of the Prairie School. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on December 9, 1971.
