425 S Main Street - Historic Ottawa Central Business District - Ottawa, Kansas - NRHP Historic Districts - Contributing Buildings on Waymarking.com

Date of Construction: c. 1920
Style: One-Part Commercial Block

This brick one-part commercial block building has two storefronts. The storefront in the north half of the building has a pair of plate glass display windows facing west, a pair of plate glass display windows facing north, and a single entrance door. The south storefront has a pair of plate glass display windows flanked by single entrance doors. All of the fenestration has aluminum frames. Masonite sheeting covers the transom area above the storefronts. Above the transom, the wall of the building features two brick panels with corbelling just below the eaves line.

Although non-historic material covers the transom area, this building retains sufficient architectural integrity to convey its historic associations. It contributes to the significance of the historic district.
