Marvin College Boys Dormitory and President's House

The two-building ensemble at North Washington Street includes a brick dormitory and a president's house built between 1899 and 1910.

The buildings represent the final remaining structures of Marvin College, which operated during the early twentieth century before the dormitory changed into Hotel Jewell.

The architectural elements of both buildings demonstrate the educational standards and campus planning approaches of small-town American colleges at the turn of the century.

Located at 404 and 416 North Washington Street, the property covers two acres and maintains its original structural features from the early 1900s.

The dormitory building served multiple functions throughout its existence, transitioning from student housing to a hotel after the college ceased operations.
