Commercial & Industrial Buildings, Wieneke-Hoerr Company Factory, 850 Jackson Street, Dubuque, Dubuque County, IA
Summary
Significance: "This business is one of the several unique industries with which Dubuque abounds," a 1911 gazette stated. "[It] is a rapidly growing concern. In the point of employment given to Dubuque's people and in tonnage of material handled yearly, it may be justly said that this concern is a proven factor in the city's prosperity." The Wieneker-Hoerr Company Factory is both historically and architecturally significant in its typification of late 19th century Dubuque industry.
