Appearance |
Constructed in 1947, this vernacular warehouse building is located at the northwest corner of Third Avenue W and W Republican Street. The original portion of the 1-story warehouse has a rectangular plan and stands on a post and pier foundation. A skirting covers the foundation. Multiple additions to the building’s north elevation have made it a much larger, L-shaped building. The original building has a side gable roof clad in asphalt composition shingles. Vertical planks and T1-11 siding clad the building and appears to replace or cover the original wood lap siding. The building originally featured multiple 9-lite wood sash windows. A trio of these windows still remain, but appear to have been relocated from their original locations. A majority of the original window openings have been covered over. A replacement loading door is present on the north end of the original building.
The building has multiple alterations since it was originally constructed and lacks integrity. |
