THE BARBIZAN - 14 N. 29TH
|
HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE:
The Sturm & Drake Building is significant on several levels as
a historic building and as a representative example of popular
local commercial architecture of the early 20th century. The Sturm
& Drake building is one of the most spirited and well designed
retail commercial buildings within the Montana Avenue corridor, and
actually, within the city. Reflecting popular aspects of commercial
architecture, the building features classical influences, dressed
brick, cast stone and a typical format of lodgings over storefront
- all common patterns in local early 20th century architecture. The
building gains significance as designed by Curtis Oehme, it serves
as a strong example of his sensibilities in commercial design, and
is currently one of the few which can be attributed with certainty
to this local architect.
