Note
Notes: This was one of a number of photos chosen for inclusion in an exhibit of some of the architectural drawings of local architect, Fred D. Crandall at the Miller Art Center. The photos were matched with Crandall's drawings of the buildings. The architectural drawings were from the early 1900's and were submitted for a building project or an addition to an existing building. It is not known if Crandall was the final architect in each project. The photos and the drawings in this exhibit were mounted for display. The photos that were in this display were removed from their mountings because the plastic covering the mounted photos was sticking to the photos.
