Hale Building (AKA: Lucas Building and Keystone National Bank), 1887
1326 Chestnut St, Philadelphia,, PA
Willis G Hale
Willis Gaylord Hale (1848, Seneca Falls, New York – August 29, 1907, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) was a late-19th century architect who worked primarily in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. His flamboyant, highly-ornate style was popular in the 1880s and 1890s, but quickly fell out of fashion in the 20th century.
Hale designed numerous ornate office buildings in Center City Philadelphia, but few survive unaltered. He built his own office building at the southwest corner of Chestnut and Juniper Streets (1887, expanded 1892, altered), an unsuccessful investment that almost bankrupted him. The critic for the magazine Architectural Record declared it an "architectural aberration":
“Consider the Hale Building, how it grows. The problem was to erect a seven-story office building with a narrow front on the principal street, and with rooms devoted to similar purposes and of similar dimensions throughout. The danger was that this uniformity would produce monotony. There is nothing of which your Philadelphia architect is so afraid as of monotony. In fact it is the only architectural defect of which he seems to go in fear. Variety he must have at all cost, and by securing variety he makes sure that he has avoided monotony, whereas in truth his heterogeneousness is more tiresome than any repetition could be. ...[E]very precaution has been taken, and with success, to insure that the building shall lack unity, shall lack harmony, shall lack repose and shall be a restless jumble.”[5]

Francis E. Hale was a partner with Major John Parsons, who operated the tabby built Parsons and Hale's General Store (circa 1859), which later, 1915, was rehabilitated as the Island Hotel. The building pictured above, the Hale Building, circa 1880, was also a "two story masonry vernacular building rectangular in plan" as the now Island Hotel, but was about one-fourth the size according to Jennifer Marie Wolfe in Historic Context at Risk: Planning for Tropical Cyclone Events in Historic Cedar Key. "The rhythm of the three-bay, two tiered porch is repeated" also.

The building has served several different functions, but is now housing Tony's Seafood Restaurant and Accord Insurance. Tony's Cedar Key Clam Chowder was crowned Clam Chowder World Champion on June 6, 2009 at the 28th Annual Schweppes Great Chowder Cook-Off in Newport, RI.
This building was also home to another popular and famous restaurant years ago ... The Heron Restaurant.

1326-28 Chestnut St., Philadelphia. Willis G. Hale, 1887. Formerly known as J.C. Lucas Building. Former Keystone National Bank (closed 1891) and Central Savings Fund, Trust & Deposit Co. (1903). Also once the home of "Drucker's Bellevue Health Baths & Saunas"
The Hale Science Building, a tall, steepled Romanesque structure, opened in 1894 as home to general science studies, but even housed the law school for a time during its long existence. The east and west wings were added in 1910, in its last major facelift for almost 75 years. In 1992, Hale Science underwent a renovation project costing $3.2 million that restored the unique sandstone structure, with great care given to the masonry, sandstone, floors, windows and intricate interior woodwork. Having stood for more than a century, Hale is the second oldest academic building on campus.
The University of Colorado at Boulder, known as CU-Boulder or CU, is the flagship university of the University of Colorado system and was founded five months before Colorado was admitted to the union in 1876. Comprising nine colleges and schools, the university offered over 150 academic programs, enrolled 28,988 students, and granted 6,781 degrees in 2007.
This building was built in 1885 by P.M. Hale. Nice mansard roof.. strange contrasting brick work.. ugly remuddle on the bottom.
This is a historic district, #85002468.
