Grant County Jail and Sheriff's Residence
Grant County Jail and Sheriff's Residence, Historic jail and residence in Marion, United States.
The Grant County Jail and Sheriff's Residence features red pressed brick construction with limestone details and a distinctive bell-cast roof at 215 East 3rd Street.
Built in 1904 by Philip Patton following designs from Richards, McCarty & Bulford, this structure combined detention facilities with living quarters for law enforcement officials.
The building represents early 20th-century architectural elements, incorporating Queen Anne style with English Tudor details throughout its two distinct sections.
The structure now functions as residential apartments, making interior access limited to tenants, while exterior viewing remains possible from East 3rd Street.
This facility maintained the practice of housing both inmates and the county sheriff under one roof, following a common Midwest arrangement of the era.
