1619 11th Avenue (Allendale) Allendale was built in 1906 by Frank Allen and has 22 rooms on three floors. The home is a magnificent example of the English Tudor style readily discernible by the stone, brick, stucco and wood trimmed woodwork (half-timbering). The Allens donated their home and grounds to the Moline School District in 1931 when they moved to California. |

Exterior Residential Paint
This Queen Anne home was built in the 1880s by the Meersman Family. A two-story addition was added in the 1920s when it was converted into apartments. The home had been basic white until replaced by a twelve color paint scheme. The body is light gray with white trim and dark blue accents. Shades of pink from light to burgandy accent the ornate detailing.

Commerical Exterior Renovation
The new Bent River Brewing Company has enhanced the street level facade of this 1922 Italian Renaissance style building with a striped awning, attractive signage, and by refurbishing and polishing the copper trim found around the windows and on the marquee. The original awning brackets and rollers were found under the previous marquee and with minor repairs now support the new awning. On the building's interior they have refinished a tin ceiling, ordering replacement pieces from the 97 year old company that made the original ceiling.

Exterior Residential Paint
This large stucco craftsman home was built in 1892 for Carl Carlson, a cabinet maker. The body of the home was recently painted a soft winter-white, accented at the freeze board, the belt coarse and the porch balustrade with a soft medium green color for a very pleasing transformation.

Exterior Residential Historic Paint
Built in 1920, this Eclectic Craftsman Bungalow was built for John A. Anderson, a taylor. The addition of a four color paint scheme to this previously all white house accents the strong vertical and horizontal lines.

Continuous Preservation of an Historic Home
This red brick Italianate home next to Allendale was built in 1892 for Charles Pope. The front gabled roof is notable for its wide eaves accented with large white sculptured pairs of brackets. The wrap-around porch is screened in. The current owners have owned the home for the past 34 years.
City Hall
Award for Sympathetic New Construction
In order to bring City Hall, built in 1914, into compliance with the American with Disabilities Act, an elevator was built on the south side of the building (pictured). The completed addition now blends well with the rest of the building so as to retain its integrity. On the interior, consideration was also given to retaining and replicating woodwork.
