Notes
  • Significance: The Louis Morgensen-William Rowan Building is eligible for HABS recordation and is significant because it contributes to the Old Main Historic District, a National Register of Historic Places historic district, under National Register criteria A and C. It contributes to this historic district under criterion A because throughout the history of the building, its two storefronts housed commercial businesses that were part of the historic commercial activity in this district that is considered the historic commercial center of the city of Racine. The building contributes to the district under criterion C because its early twentieth century front is a simple and typical example of Twentieth Century Commercial architecture. The building also contributes to the district architecturally because it is a part of and a continuation of the visual streetscapes of Racine's historic commercial center.
