First Methodist Church, 1924
201 N. Court Street

Designed in the Tudor Revival style by Guy Carpenter, an architect with the"Louden Barn Planning Service." Its design included a Louden ventilating system, an early attempt at air-conditioning.

The fans proved too noisy, however, and fell into disuse, possibly because it was not used correctly.

The Louden Ventilator on the roof, of a type usually reserved for a barn roof, can be best viewed from the north driveway of the courthouse.
