Description: The photograph shows the front of Saint Raphael Church with several automobiles parked out front. The church has two large bell towers, with one being significantly taller than the other. Saint Raphael Church is located at 225 East High Street, at the corner of Spring Street, in Springfield. Designed by architect Charles A. Cregar, construction on this Gothic style brick building began in 1848. Construction on a very large addition began in 1892, and was officially completed with the dedication in 1898. This historic Roman Catholic church has a 184 foot tower, and a somewhat smaller one holding a 16, 000 pound bell. The stained glass windows, created by Mayer of Munich, were designed in the twelfth-century manner. In 1976, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places. View on Ohio Memory.

Description: The present Pickaway County courthouse was completed in 1890 by architects Frank Weary and George Washington Kramer. It is the county's third courthouse and was built on the foundations of its predecessor. The clock tower had to be offset to the side because the old foundation was too weak to support the tower's original placement in the center. In front of the courthouse is a Civil War Memorial made out of a column from the 1847 courthouse. This image shows the front entrance and clock tower. View on Ohio Memory.

Description: This image shows the front and side facades of the Belmont County Courthouse. This courthouse was designed at the same time as the Miami County Courthouse from 1885-1888 by architect Joseph W. Yost. Although the two are similar in size, shape and basic features, the Belmont County Courthouse appears modest in comparison to the Miami courthouse. In 1993 it was chemically power washed to reveal a clean and impressive stone facade. View on Ohio Memory.
