The Citizens Water Company building was designed by Temple & Burrows, a prominent architectural firm based in Davenport. The Classical Revival design with unique white glazed terra cotta tile facade is unique among Burlington architecture. The four lions have observed the growth and evolution of this city since the building’s completion in early 1915. A step inside reveals a historic interior with marble floor entry, iron teller window, ornamental ceiling decor, iron stair banister and quarter sawn oak flooring.
This piece of Burlington history, maintained and carefully preserved by only three previous owners, is ready and waiting for a new vision and purpose. Contact Melissa Schwenker at Ruhl&Ruhl for more information.
