Wallace Photos
by Paulette Ross

Paulette loves the architecture of Wallace. Virtually every building in the downtown area is on the National Register of Historic Places. Many homes in the neighborhood are also listed on the Register. The town, founded by Colonel W.R. Wallace in 1884, burned to the ground in 1890. The rough and ready miners and merchants immediately rebuilt everything with brick. Consequentially, most of the town survived the huge 1910 fire that burned three million acres. Several buildings have "1890" displayed on their fascia. Wallace exists today as a showcase of Queen Anne, Art Deco, Chicago, Neo-classic, and Arts and Crafts architectural styles. 613 Bank Street Wallace Idaho   dehaven13@yahoo.com

The Wells Fargo building on the corner of Sixth and Bank was built in 1916 as part of a "renaisssance revival" in architecture.
The tower on the Rossi Building attracts attention day and night.
We are especially proud of our Carnegie Library (1910) and the White and Bender Building (1890).
The Chicago style of the 1313 Club contrasts with the neoclassic County Court House a block away.
