"8. Ragon Building (101 West Market Street): 1878, 2 story brick with round-headed
windows at 2nd story level, shaped parapet, round windows on east elevation." ~ NRHP Nomination Form
"The stylistic transition moves from the sedately ornamented 1852
Coleman Building (No. 21); to the Victorian, three-section, effusively decorated commercial
building at the corner of Market and Main Streets (No. 6) and the Ragon Building (No. 8),
both of which were erected in 1878; to the relatively plainer, utilitarian buildings of the
nineties, such as the 1890 building that houses Cates Jewelers and Purple Daisy (No.7)." ~ NRHP Nomination Form
