Dr. J. W. Barnard Building and First National Bank of Joseph
The Dr. J. W. Barnard Building and First National Bank of Joseph, at 12 - 14 Main St. in Joseph, Oregon, is a pair of historic adjacent buildings sharing a common interior wall. They were built by investment of physician Dr. J. W. Barnard, rancher Ludwig Knapper, and banker Frederick Scribner. Each building is 25 by 60 feet (7.6 m × 18.3 m) in footprint.[2] The Dr. J. W. Barnard Building was built in 1908 by local contractor Frank Marr, with design by Chicago architects J.A. Flesch & Son.[2] The First National Bank Building was also built in 1908 by Frank Marr. It was used as a bank until the bank failed in 1925; it was then used as a post office.[2] The pair of buildings was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991; the listing included two contributing buildings.[1][2] References
