    From npgallery.nps.gov/GetAsset/ea3b33ab-520a-4402-81d5-5cdfb5..., 1982: "SITE NUMBER 63 Telephone Building 334 Walnut History Built in 1908 for Northwestern Bell, this structure had additions built to the rear in 1931, 1954, and 1969. Vacated in 1972, the structure is now used by the Royal Athletic Company. Description This brick structure is a one-story building placed on a half-story basement demarcated with a concrete water table and string course, faced in a decorative yellow-orange burnt brick, known locally as Yankton brick', the telephone building is three bays on the front facade. Capped with a cement pediment and acanthus leaf, the cornice bears a 1908 date stone. The door and windows have been altered. The brass plaque reading "Telephone Building" remains intact. Significance: architecture, communications, business Many small towns retain their early telephone buildings, which are often pleasant and architecturally witty, small scale structures. This building was built to the scale of the mid-nineteenth century Yankton commercial buildings. It emphasizes its distinct function both through the simplicity and boldness of its design and through the use of the striking, decorative brick commonly found in foundations and industrial structures in southeastern South Dakota."
