Diastole, at 2501 Holmes, is a prominent fixture in the Hospital Hill area.  It was built as his residence and later donated to UMKC by Dr. E. Grey Dimond, emeritus Provost for Health Sciences and a founder of the UMKC Medical School.  Its Omar Khayyam Room houses part of one of UMKC’s special collections, a prime assortment of various editions of the Rubaiyat, amassed by Dr. Dimond over his lifetime.
