The Ward-Meade House is a Greek Revival residence built in 1870 in Topeka, Kansas, originally constructed for Anthony A. Ward and his wife Mary Jane Foster. The house passed to their daughter Jennie upon inheritance, who occupied it with her husband John Meade, an engineer for the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway. The property remained within the Ward-Meade family until 1961, when the city of Topeka acquired it. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on November 12, 1975, and is also recognized on the Register of Historic Kansas Places.
