Commercial & Industrial Buildings, 504 Central Avenue, Dubuque, Dubuque County, IA

Significance: With its first-floor storefront and apartments on the upper floors, this building typifies the commercial/residential structures built along Main, Iowa, White and Clay (now Central) streets in the late 19th century. Bade's grocery store and the taverns that followed represent the typical neighborhood establishments. Architecturally, the building is distinguished by its massing and detailing as a relatively modest commercial interpretation of Queen Anne design.
