1. Lincoln Fixture Building Marker
Lincoln Fixture Building was the last of the major Haymarket buildings designed by F. C. Fiske. It displays clearly the contrast often seen in Haymarket warehouses between stylish fronts and utilitarian, plain side and rear walls. The classically detailed facade is topped by a cast-stone balustrade similar to the one over the Old Federal Building, located diagonally across 9th and P Streets.
The Lincoln Fixture & Supply Company distributed plumbing supplies from the building. It was later a warehouse for Hardy Furniture Co. and still later for Miller & Paine Department Store.
Erected 2010 by Lincoln Haymarket Development Corporation.
