<p>The Commercial Exchange Building, also known as the Collins Manufacturing – Jackson Automobile Company complex, is an industrial building complex located at 2301 E. Michigan Ave. in Jackson, Michigan. The building was built partly in 1895, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993. The listing included four contributing buildings.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In 1885, prominent businessmen Samuel B. Collins and Dwight and Henry Smith established the Collins Manufacturing Company to manufacture wagons, carts, surreys, sleighs and buggies. The owners looked for a place to build a factory, and decided on this area, then near the eastern edge of Jackson. Around 1880, the Michigan Central Railroad had constructed a spur in this area, which prompted the construction of a number of nearby industrial buildings. Collins Manufacturing constructed an 1885 factory at this site and began manufacturing. A decade later, the company employed 300–400 men and was producing 20,000 vehicles per year. However, in 1895, a fire destroyed the factory. Collins Manufacturing immediately rebuilt the same year, constructing a massive U-shaped factory on the site.</p><br>
<p>A few years later, in 1897, the Collins Manufacturing Company was absorbed by another Jackson business, the National Wheel Company. National Wheel relocated its general offices into the former Collins Manufacturing site, occupying it until 1908. In 1908, the former Collins factory was purchased by the Jackson Automobile Company, which built cars there. Around this time, a second building was constructed, enclosing the U of the original building. In 1909, Jackson Automobile built another two buildings on the site. The company used the factory until its dissolution in 1922. The site was then used by Cardon-Phonocraft Corporation, who made neon signs, radio tubes and radio/phonograph receivers. In 1930, Cardon-Phonocraft was purchased by the Sparks-Withington Company (later Sparton Corporation), a Jackson-area manufacturer of auto parts and radios. Sparks-Withington occupied the building until the late-1950s.</p><br>
<p>In 1961, the manufacturing complex was purchased by a new owner, who renamed the building the "Commercial Exchange Building." Building space is leased to a variety of tenants, who use the space for commercial and manufacturing purposes, as well as warehouse, office, and residential space.</p><br>

<p>The Old Hancock Central High School  is a former public school building located at 417 Quincy Street in Hancock, Michigan, United States. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2018.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Copper was discovered in the Keweenaw Peninsula in the 1840s, leading to the opening of the Quincy Mine in 1856. In 1859, the Quincy Mining Company platted the town of Hancock. Both the mine and the town grew rapidly, and by 1862, 1700 people had settled in Hancock. The first public school in the town was opened in 1863. The school went through several buildings, and in 1875 a new brick Union School was constructed on Quincy Street, in front of the site of the present building. This school became too small, and in 1893 a Central Primary School was constructed nearby, and in 1875 school became the junior/senior high.</p><br>
<p>In 1922, the 1875 building was destroyed by fire. The Hancock School Board began making plans to construct a new building, but the local depression due to low copper prices caused voters to reject a proposed tax. However, the Board scaled back plans, and a new tax was approved later that year. The Board purchased lots behind the old school and hired architect G. L. (George Lionell) Lockhart of St. Paul, Minnesota to design the school and local contractor Archie J. Verville to build it. Construction began in early 1923, and was completed in late 1924. Junior and senior high school students began using the school in November 1924, and were joined by elementary students from the Central Primary School at the start of the 1925 school year. The old Central Primary School was eventually demolished in 1962.</p><br>
<p>In the late 1920s and particularly during the Great Depression, the economy of Hancock suffered. Families left the city, but the lack of jobs kept students in school, and enrollment remained high. The economy boomed again during World War II, but after the war, the Quincy mine closed, leading to another exodus of families. In response, the school district annexed nearby rural districts to keep enrollment up. In 1970, elementary students were transitioned out of the high school building.</p><br>
<p>However, Hancock&#39;s schools were becoming outmoded. The district built a new elementary school in 1989, and in 1996 passed a bond measure to build a new high school and refurbish the 1923 building into a junior high. High school students moved to the new building in 1999, and the old building remained serving grades six through eight. In 2008, the district passed a measure to build a new junior high, and students moved into the new building in January 2010. The school district gave the old building to Finlandia University, which plans to renovate the building for its College of Health Sciences, for community functions, and for apartment space.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The old Hancock Central High School is located high on a hillside, with a wide terraced lawn in front of the building and stairs leading up to it. The building itself is a three-story, symmetrical, flat-roof red brick Collegiate Gothic structure, composed of a central block flanked by setback wings on a high raised basement. A cornice and parapet wall run across the top. The foundation is stone and concrete, and the water table, window and door surrounds, and other decorative details on the building are made from concrete painted white. The windows were originally wood, but were replaced with aluminum windows; some openings are partially filled with solid panels.</p><br>
<p>The projecting central block is nine bays wide, containing the four-door main entrance in the center bay in a projecting vestibule. The entrance is flanked with brick buttresses and topped by a parapet containing a plaque reading "A.D. 1923." The entrance opening is a compound Tudor arch with a transom above containing pointed arch tracery. Above the main entrance is a four-part horizontal compound window on the first floor, an eight-part compound window on the second, and a sixteen-part compound window on the third.</p><br>
<p>Each wing contains four bays; the inside bay of each wing projects slightly and contains a projecting entrance vestibule, smaller and simpler than the main entrance. The entrances contain double doors, with a transom window with Gothic tracery above. A pair of double-hung windows are on the first floor and six-part compound windows on the second and third floors.</p><br>
<p>The State Bank of Ladysmith is a historic bank building at 102 W. 2nd Street in Ladysmith, Wisconsin. The building was constructed in 1912 as a permanent home for the State Bank of Ladysmith. The two-story granite-faced building has a Neoclassical design. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The State Bank of Ladysmith was established in 1903, shortly after a new lumber mill brought population and economic growth to Ladysmith. In 1912, the bank, wanting a permanent home, had a two-story building constructed. The bank operated on the first floor of the building and rented the second floor as office space; while it originally housed two lumber companies, most of the second floor&#39;s occupants through the years were attorneys and doctors. Upon its opening, the new building was praised by local newspapers, with the Ladysmith News-Budget calling it "the finest business structure in the city, with no exception." After the State Bank closed, the Pioneer Bank occupied the building from 1927 to 1964. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on January 17, 1980.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The W.E. Maddux contractors designed the Neoclassical building. The two street-facing sides of the building are faced with ashlar-cut red granite, which was quarried at Lohrville but cut at the construction site because of a quarry strike. A portico surrounds the front entrance, with two polished granite columns on either side and dentillation and a balcony on top. The portico originally included a carved panel above the door as well, though it has since been removed. The building&#39;s cornice is also dentillated, and a parapet runs along the street-facing sides of the roof.</p><br>

<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>William K. Prudden was born in 1859, attended Michigan State Agricultural College, and lived for several years in Indianapolis and Chicago. He worked as a real estate broker, and was also part owner of the Lansing Wheel Company, which provided wheels for carriages and wagons. The company was a great success, and in 1903 Prudden launched his own enterprise, W. K. Prudden & Company, to manufacture wheels. The company became a major supplier to the fledgling automobile industry, particularly Olds Motor Works. The original factory was located on Michigan Avenue, but in 1905 Prudden acquired this site along East Saginaw Street. By 1913, the company had constructed at least 18 buildings on the site, using both sides of May Street. In 1916, Prudden built the current structure for use as office and assembly space.</p><br>
<p>The company continued to expand, and in 1916 reorganized as the Prudden Wheel Company. In 1920, Prudden merged with local companies Auto Wheel and Gier Pressed Steel, and the Memphis, Tennessee form of Weis & Lesh Manufacturing to form the Motor Wheel Corporation. The headquarters of the company remained at this plant. Motor Wheel moved into making steel wheels in the 1920s and brake drums in the 1930s.</p><br>
<p>In 1961, Motor Wheel moved its headquarters to another facility, and demolished many of the buildings on the old site. Motor Wheel became a subsidiary of Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company in 1964, but left Lansing entirely in 1996.</p><br>

<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Arbaughs Department Store was founded in 1891 by J. M. Cameron, who soon brought his nephew, Basil C. Cameron, as an assistant. Basils college roommate, Frank N. Arbaugh, moved to Lansing in 1896 to become a clerk at the store. The next year, J. M. Cameron sold his share of the business to Arbaugh, and the firm became Cameron & Arbaugh. The store flourished, and in 1902 Cameron & Arbaugh purchased the lot on which this building stands. In 1904, they started plans to construct a new building, moving the house that was previously on the property. The building was likely designed by local architect Edwyn A. Bowd. Construction started in early 1905, and the new store opened in October of that year.</p><br>
<p>In 1909, Frank Arbaugh bought Basil Camerons share of the store, and the business became the F. N. Arbaugh Company (or simply Arbaughs). In 1915, a matching addition was constructed on the building, doubling its size. The store survived through the Great Depression, and in 1953 Arbaugh sold the company to Sperry & Hutchinson of New York, who also owned Wurzburg Department Stores in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Arbaugh resigned later that year, and died in 1955. The store operated under the Arbaughs Department Store name until 1969, when it changed to the Wurzburgs name. The store was closed in 1972.</p><br>
<p>The Arbaugh family had retained ownership of the building after selling the store, and in 1974 sold the building to Lansing automobile dealer Karl Story, who remodeled it into offices. In 2002, the building became vacant, and in 2004 it was rehabilitated for use as apartments and commercial office space.</p><br>

The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Lansing was established in 1847, with a large plat reserved for the construction of the Michigan State Capitol. Government buildings were constructed near the intersection of Capitol Avenue and Kalamazoo Street, and the population of the settlement skyrocketed, reaching 3000 by 1859. By this time, there was substantial commercial development along Washington, and by the late 1860s, Washington Avenue from Ionia Street south to Kalamazoo Street was almost completely developed, primarily with one-and two-story commercial structures, along with some residences. Over the next few decades, the business district grew, and some of the early wooden buildings were replaced with more substantial brick structures. Capitol Avenue, only one block from Washington, remained a mix of residential and social/religious buildings. In the 1890s and early 1900s, larger five- and six-story buildings were constructed in the downtown.</p><br>
<p>During the 1910s and 1920s, the downtown was substantially transformed. Many older buildings were replaced with newer ones, and a number of bank and office buildings were built in the area, in addition to commercial spaces. This building boom pushed into Capitol Avenue, with previously residential areas transformed into commercial and office space. As the Great Depression arrived, building projects slowed, although several buildings were renovated or rebuilt during the late 1930s.</p><br>
<p>After World War II, the business district began expanding to the south down Washington, and the east along Michigan. Many buildings in the district were modernized. However, by the late 1960s and early 1970s, the rise of malls around the city edges led to a decline in the downtown shopping district, a trend that continued into the 2000s. Stores in the district closed, and offices replaced them. Urban renewal experiments resulted in the demolition of some of the historic buildings, and by the 1980s and 1990s, other building were demolished for no more than parking spaces.</p><br>
<p>By the mid-2000s, the downtown was entering a rejuvenation, started with the rehabilitation of The Arbaugh into a mixed-use development. Other buildings followed, and in the decade since the downtown has enjoyed a rebirth.</p><br>
