DESCRIPTION SUMMARY PARAGRAPH Bishop's Block is a five-story, Victorian Romanesque warehouse building designed by Franklin D. Hyde and completed between 1887 and 1889. Constructed of masonry walls in reddish brick, the building occupies a corner site at the intersection of Main and First Streets. Its primary facade faces Main Street on the west, with a secondary facade fronting First Street on the north side. The south side shares a partial wall with a three-story hotel. The east or back side of the building lies adjacent to a new freeway and, just beyond that, railroad tracks and a Mississippi River harbor. Each exterior wall of the building contains elements reflecting the varied form and function of the respective sides. Located adjacent to Dubuque's Old Main Historic District (National Register of Historic Places, 1983), the building is intact and in generally good condition. The neighborhood surrounding it was bisected in 1992 by the freeway, resulting in the removal of a portion of the rail yard and creating a dead end of Main Street just south of Bishop's Block. However, proximity to the Historic District, other historic buildings and structures,

  • Cathedral Historic District Phase IV District Report
    Cathedral Historic District Phase IV District Report Prepared by James E. Jacobsen History Pays! Historic Preservation Consulting Firm Des Moines, Iowa December 18, 2003 Cathedral Historic District Update Report, 2003-04: Overviews: District Changes Since 1986: Demolitions in the district have not approached the level of substantial loss as experienced by the Jackson Park District. Demolitions have been restricted to Bluff Street and the several named alleyways to the west of that street. Lost properties include 38 (not found) 479-81 (1860 side gable brick), 493-95 (c.1895 Queen Anne brick row house), 687 (c.1865 brick vernacular) Bluff, 450 (c.1880s frame T-plan), 493 (c.1930s frame cottage on raised concrete block foundation) Hayden Lane, 479-81 Bluff (Copperhead Lane) (two-story brick side gable vernacular, c.1860). Remodelings: 186-88 Bluff is undergoing renovation at this time. 409 Bluff has also been restored. Physical Descriptive Notes: The original National Register of Historic Places Cathedral district nomination (1984) describes the basically flat river terrace setting of the vast majority of the district, and notes the notable raised deviation of St. Mary Street which occupies a raised terrace setting west of and above St. Raphael Cathedral. Cathedral Historic District Update Report, 2003-04: Cathedral District Contour Map (20’ contours) The contour map shown below indicates that the most notable terrace projection is one that expands from the base of the West Third Street hill. This elevation contrasts markedly with the lower grade Cathedral Block. To the southeast the ground falls away gradually. A second marked terrace is the site of the present day Central School.
