Franklin County Courthouse II, Courthouse Square, Hampton, Franklin County, IA
Summary
Significance: The design of this building is an example of the late use in a rural locality of the simple overall form and the orderly repetition of openings that characterized the Greek Revival style of the second quarter of the nineteenth century. There were many buildings in the state thus simply designed. In addition, surviving public records provide some indications of the community process of making architectural decisions in 1865.
