Notes
  • Significance: The Arcade building, a neoclassical commercial structure, is a contributing building within the Downtown Hammond: State Street Historic District, a district eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. Local significance is based on its architecture; the location of a prominent, local business; and the association of its owner/builder with the local Jewish community. The significance of the State Street Historic District is based on: 1) its architecture including fine examples of terra cotta from the 1920's, many of which were designed by the architects of Chicago; and 2) its history (a) being one of the two primary commercial - retail streets of Hammond which served as the major commercial and retail center for the Calumet region of Indiana and Illinois from the early 1900's to the 1960's; and (b) the location of a concentration of Jewish-owned businesses from the early 1900's until the 1960's.
