The Lane-Hooven House is a historic home located in Hamilton, Ohio, known for its unique octagonal shape and rich history. Built in 1863 by Clark Lane, a prominent industrialist and philanthropist, the house has served as a symbol of community support and generosity throughout the years.

Originally called Lane's Folly, the house was always open to charity and aid societies, hosting numerous events and gatherings. Over time, it changed hands and was eventually gifted to the City as a memorial by Bertrand Kahn.
