| Description |
Built in the early 20th Century, these buildings demonstrate elements of the Queen Anne and Classical Revival styles, and were designed by notable architects. In the foreground, built in 1900 and extended in 1905, this Queen Anne-style building was designed by Gordon and Paunack, and is known as the Carroll Block. The building is clad in buff brick with a storefront clad in panels with a cornice featuring dentils and decorative pilasters, a cornice at the top of the building with brackets and dentils, stone trim, one-over-one windows, second-story oriel windows on the original section, stone belt coursing on the addition, tripartite windows on the third floor of the original section, and low-slope roofs enclosed by parapets. In the background, built in 1914-1915, this Classical Revival-style skyscraper was designed by James R. Law and was originally known as the Gay Building. The building is clad in cream-colored brick with limestone trim, limestone pilasters and a limestone architrave and cornice at the first floor of the front facade, wooden paneling in the storefront openings, sconces with globes, a recessed entrance to the building’s lobby with masonic motifs in the mosaic tile floor, and stone reliefs with cartouches between the windows on the second floor. Above the second floor, the facade is relatively unadorned with concrete floor slabs and columns visible on the side facades, stone sills, and one-over-one windows, with a metal fire escape mounted on the building’s rear facade. The top floor of the building features a cornice with modillions below the window sills, decorative paneling on the exterior of the top floor, and a cornice with modillions at the top of the building on the parapet that encloses the building’s low-slope roof. The building presently houses various office tenants, and has become known as the Churchill Building. |
