Dick Brothers Brewery Bottle House, Quincy, Illinois
A view of the Dick Brothers Brewery Bottle House that was constructed in 1909. Dick Brothers was founded in 1857, and was one of the largest beer brands in the early 20th century rivaling Anheuser-Busch at one time. The brewery closed down in 1951.
Today the complex of buildings, known as the Dick Brothers Brewery District, has been redeveloped as a community of arts, culture, history and entertainment. The complex is the centerpiece of the South Side German Historic District, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
Quincy, known as Illinois's "Gem City," is the seat of Adams County. Located on the Mississippi River, this west central Illinois community had a population of 40,111 at the 2020 census. During the 19th century, Quincy was a thriving transportation center as riverboats and rail service linked the city to many destinations west and along the river.
I invite you to visit my Adams County album for more views of the residential and commercial architecture in Quincy.
