TERRITORIAL COMMERCIAL DISTRICT OF CHOUTEAU |
| Description of Significance |
THE TERRITORIAL COMMERCIAL DISTRICT OF CHOUTEAU WAS COMPRISED OF THREE COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS ALL CONSTRUCTED IN 1903 THAT WERE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE EARLIEST DEVELOPMENT OF THAT COMMUNITY. THIS COMMERCIAL DISTRICT WAS ONE OF THE OLDEST IN NORTHEASTERN OKLAHOMA AND WAS ONE OF THE BEST EXAMPLES OF SMALL TOWN MIDWESTERN COMMERCIAL ARCHITECTURE STILL INTACT IN THIS REGION OF THE STATE AT THE TIME OF LISTING. INCLUDED PROPERTIES WERE THE GRAY AND ATKINS MERCANTILE STORE, WILL CROCKETTS GENERAL STORE, AND GRIFFINS GROCERY AND CHOUTEAU CAFE. SHARING COMMON WALLS, THESE BUILDINGS WERE ALL CLAD IN RED BRICK AND HAVE FLAT ROOFS. LARGE DISPLAY WINDOWS DOMINATE FIRST FLOOR FENESTRATION ON EACH BUILDING. WITH NO INTRUSIONS AT THE TIME OF LISTING, THE DISTRICT RETAINED THE SAME OVERALL SCALE, PROPORTION, AND ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING AS WHEN IT WAS CONSTRUCTED IN THE FIRST DECADE OF THE 1900S. LISTED IN NATIONAL REGISTER 9/22/1983. DEMOLISHED CA. 1995. |
