Cast iron facade in Clinton, Louisiana.

This building is part of a group of buildings know as "Lawyers' Row". Along with the East Feliciana Parish Courthouse, they are listed as a National Historic Landmark.

Statement of significance from the National Register: "A full peripteral Greek Revival Courthouse opposite five adjacent law office buildings of harmonious design form an ensemble unique when new and more remarkable for having survived intact. The East Feliciana Parish Courthouse and three of the law offices continue in their original functions, a further tribute to their design and relationship which has served well for more than 150 years."

Although it has held up well, it is showing signs of severe deterioration and requires intervention. I have surveyed the building and will make recommendations for it's conservation and repair.

Some components are still in good shape for over 150 years!

Other components will require repairs.
