Market Street which received its name legitimately from its 19th-century use is the second major east-west thoroughfare south of the Ohio River; Main Street is to the north (see the National Register nomi­ nation form for the West Main Street Historic District, listed on March 22, 1974; its boundaries are currently being extended eastward). The south side of the block on which the old Louisville Trust Building is located is the site of the important Greek Revival Jefferson County Courthouse (1835-58, designed by Gideon Shryock, completed by Albert Fink; listed on the Register on April 10, 1972). Connected to the Courthouse by a second- story bridge tester Courthouse Place, which runs east-west across the center of the block is the old Courthouse Annex (probably designed by McDonald and Dodd and erected in the mid-1890s) with the 20th-century Fiscal Court Building west of it. The north central portion of the block facing Market Street is occupied by the former Ben Snyder's Department Store building; this is a handsome turn-of-the century brick structure probably designed by Clarke & Loomis. The Louisville Trust Building is surrounded on the south and west by the former First National Bank Building with its Adamesque brick facades on Court Place, 5th and Main Streets. Diagonally across the intersection from the old Louisville Trust Building is the new high-rise First National Bank Building with a plaza on the corner. The remainder of the intersection and much of nearby 5th and Market Streets has turn-of-the century commercial structures (eventually to be nominated to the Register as a district). Thus, the Louisville Trust Building does not stand in isolation, but retains its intended urban context of civic, legal, financial, and commercial structures, whether 19th- or 20th-century in date. In fact, the tower of the 1890s building is usually seen against either that of the 25-story Citizens' Fidelity Bank building a block to the south with its concrete-aggregate-panelled and finned surface, designed by Weldon Beckett, or the 35-story dark metal and glass surface of the First National Bank Building designed by Harrison and Abramowitz to the northwest. The 1891 building more than holds its own in mass, texture, and color against either of them, and provides a most welcome contrast in detail, particularly the picturesque composition of the corner tower and turret. The old Louisville Trust Building consists of a seven-story main block with a square tower rising one story above the main cornice and an octagonal turret above that.

Dodd STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE The Louisville Trust Bank Building is the largest and finest of Louisville's (i. e. Kentucky's) surviving Chicago-style high-rise office buildings. It represents the major collaboration of two of Louisville's most talented turn-of-the-century architects, Mason Maury and W. J. Dodd. Although Dodd had earlier worked in Chicago with two of the founders of the famous "Chicago School," Major William LeBaron Jenney and ,Solon . S£oBeiman* the exterior appearance of the building seems to have been directly inspired by both the late works of H. H. Richardson and the early masterworks of Louis Sullivan, two of the giants of American and indeed modern architecture. Yet, whatever its immediate sources, the design of the Louisville Trust Building has a character and coherence of its own. In spite of the subtle and varied elaboration of what Newcomb called the "robust lithic facades," to reflect (or possibly compensate for) the structure's then-unprecedented height and amount of usable office space, the overall form is bold, supple, and clear. The building was from the outset a powerful proclamation of the stability yet modernity, lavish yet controlled resources, community pride yet corporate com­ petitiveness of the private financial institution it long represented. Now part of the magnificent Jefferson County-Louisville civic complex dominated by the nearby ComstftteaBe and City Hall, the building has been effectively adapted for public use. Construction of the original Louisville Trust Building began as the city ended its eleventh decade of continuous settlement. During that span, the city had grown from a crude trading village to a virtual metropolis. Its hegemony in the Falls of the Ohio region was long established and a prominent position in the commerce and industry of the Midwest and South secure. As the place itself evolved, so too did the size and demeanor of its architecture. Commercial building needs, once dictated by the simple mercantile arrangement of goods, now demanded provision for a plethora of new and complex uses. Such a need one which required the performance of a great many participants within a limited amount of urban acreage was shared by the legal and financial community in the last quarter of the 19th century. Its business was conducted, in a great measure, in (continued) QMAJOR BIBLIOGRAPHICAL REFERENCES Art Work of Louisville, 1903. Brown, Theodore M.

  • Tax Increment Financing: an Improved Revitalization Tool by Renée Tribert, Project Manager, Making Places
    Connecticut Preservation News November/December 2015 Volume XXXVIII, No. 6 Closing the Gap: Financing Hartford’s Downtown By Brad Schide, Housing Renaissance Connecticut Circuit Rider Downtown Hartford is undergoing a housing revival, and historic buildings have taken center stage, complementing other economic development projects such as the University of Connecticut campus, minor-league baseball stadium, and the Front Street redevelopment. With their strategic location, these historic build- ings have long been potential amenities, but private financing alone was not able to cover the full cost of renovating them. Only with new and expanded public funding can developers close the financing gap. In Hartford, money from three sources has helped make up the difference between financing and finished projects: Federal and State Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credits, the State Department of Economic and Community Development (DECD), and the Capital Region Development Authority (CRDA). This article will show how these gap funds made possible the reuse of four historic downtown buildings. All four projects used Federal and State Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credits.

    ~ CT·TRUST Connecticut FOR HISTORIC PRESERVATION Preservation News September / October 2004 Volume XXVII, No. 5 The Most Important Threatened Historic Places in Connecticut – 2004 sing nominations submitted by members, leads from an infor- Umal poll of preservationists across the state, and the observations of our Connecticut Circuit Riders, the Connecticut Trust has compiled a list of the most impor- tant threatened historic places in the state. Our aim is to call attention to especially important historic sites that are under threat or to common dangers that imperil a num- ber of historic places in Connecticut. As we looked around the state this year, three recurring themes emerged. One is the need for sources of funding to close the “appraisal gap” — the difference between the cost of renovating a building and its expected value once renovation is complete. Even when there is recognition of signifi- cance, local support, and a willing developer, commercial lenders will not lend more than their appraisals indicate a property is worth. Convinced of the long-term viability of many preservation projects that cannot obtain short-term financing, the Trust is investigating ways of closing this gap. A second theme is demolition by neglect. From inner cities to expensive This dam, which powered the American Thread Company mills in neighborhoods, important historic buildings are allowed to Willimantic, is one of many across the state that are threatened with deteriorate. “The building fell into disrepair,” owners say, as if demolition. Since this photo was taken in 1968, the brick mill has been demolished and the stone one renovated.
