429 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 contains two storefronts. The storefront in the north half of the building has a three-part aluminum-framed plate glass display window and a recessed entrance at the center of the building. The storefront in the south half of the building has aluminum-framed plate glass display windows flanking a recessed entrance door with sidelights and a transom. Metal sheeting covers the transom area above the storefronts. Above the transom area, the wall of the building has two brick panels with corbelling just below the eaves line.

Although non-historic materials cover the transom area and a portion of the storefront has been altered, this building retains sufficient architectural integrity to convey its historic associations. It contributes to the significance of the historic district.
