Excerpt from the nomination form on page 5:
Built in 1926, this six story, Late Gothic Revival, steel framed, concrete deck, rectangular office building has a front façade of white glazed terra cotta and red brick side walls. The Dickmann Building is located on the south side of the alley, one half block south of Arsenal Street (and Tower Grove Park), on the west side of South Grand Boulevard and has an additional alley on the back or north side of the building. This part of South Grand is a major early twentieth century commercial district of primarily two and three story retail/commercial buildings that developed in south Saint Louis to support the nearby, middle class, residential areas, such as those in the Shaw Historic District and the Grand Oak Hill Neighborhood.(Submitted on July 12, 2023, by Devry Becker Jones of Washington, District of Columbia.)
