説明 | Built in 1884, this Queen Anne-style building was constructed as a masonic lodge, post office, and city hall for Dayton, and over time also housed the local Knights of Pythias Hall, a movie theater, Kroger grocery store, the Midwest Brokers Mart, and a carpet store.The building features a red brick exterior, side gable roof, arched window openings, decorative stone trim accents, bands of decorative brick coursing, a rusticated stone base, brick pilasters with corbeling, first-floor storefronts with cast iron columns, with the corner storefront featuring a lower floor than the others and an entry at the same level as the sidewalk, rather than raised up several steps, and window openings that have been covered with vinyl siding and wood infill since the late 20th Century when the building was utilized as the Midwest Brokers Mart and as a carpet store, but mostly still contain the original two-over-two double-hung windows in relatively good condition.The building is divided into a three-story front portion with a tall second-story assembly hall (formerly serving as a city meeting hall and masonic hall) with a shorter and smaller third-story assembly hall above (which formerly served as a movie theater and still contains the theater’s coat closets and projection booth), with the rear wing featuring four stories that formerly served as offices for the Masons, Knights of Pythias, and the City of Dayton. Between these two sections of the building is a large and winding interior staircase, with a double door at the exterior along Berry Street, a cast iron balcony with decorative brackets on the exterior of the second floor, a gable at the roofline above.The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2022 as “Dayton City Hall” - though it is known more commonly in the local area as the Rayme-Burton Building. It is presently slated to be converted into several apartment units on the upper floors that will leave the character-defining original interior features intact and restore the exterior window openings to their original state, and also feature rehabilitated ground-level retail space. |
