Village Hall
239 S. Main Street, Sheffield, IL
Village Hall was designed by George Barber in 1908 and built in 1909. Barber may have had an inside track on being selected as the architect for the project because one of the councilman involved with the project was a former Barber client, having built a Barber deigned home back in 1895, just down the street.

Commercial Building & Storefront
12 N. Tenth Street Street, Richmond, IN
This 3-bay commercial building is a spot on match for Barber’s design no. 68, from the 1891 “Cottage Souvenir No. 2” pattern book. Although altered along the front face of the ground floor, this building’s exterior is fairly intact.

First National Bank
302 Main Street, Greenville, MS
This building continues to serve as a bank, although I do not know how historically intact the interior is. Perhaps someone in the Greenville area would like to visit this gem and shoot some photos of the interior? If so, please be aware that because this is a functioning bank building, I am sure that permission would need to be obtained from the management, before any such photos could be taken.
