The patterned cornice and the corbelled corner capitals found in the two main factory buildings are repeated in the depot building. Windows are 2-over-2 double-hung with brick segmental-arched hoods. The front elevation faces southwest and displays regular fenestration in the second and third stories and irregular fenestration at the first story. Two individual doorways are located at the first story of the southwest elevation; both are located above the raised concrete foundation wall; the original raised platform that enabled efficient truck loading is no longer present. The remains of a metal awning are located above the first story." -"Horlick Industrial Historic Districkt", WisDOT #2290-17-00, Prepared by GLARC (Gail Klein), (2011). |
