Additional Information: | The building was demolished prior to 1995 when the new Johnson Bank building was constructed on this site. Photo code #2: 75BR-13/6. Formerly 312-314 S. Washington St. (1957 Sanborn-Perris Map). Originally built as a streetcar barn, this was a fine, rather elaborate version of this form. The gable roofed original building has a parapet decorated by an elaborately arched corbel table made of brick with cut stone coping above. Placed centrally below the gable peak is a large blank name plate. This gable end is all that is visible of the original building. Later buildings were built against both the north and south facades. Originally, these were known as 306, 312-314 and 318 S. Washington, with this (312-314) being the oldest. When 306 was built, the main facade design of this one-story tall building was extended across the first floor of both the two older building obliterating the earlier designs of these facades. A small bronze plaque (80/28) identifies this as the site of the home and trading post of Green Bay pioneer Augustin DeLanglade. |
