Regarding 1224 Noble Street. Excerpt from the National Register nomination for the Downtown Anniston Historic District, which includes this building:
1224 Noble Street, 1891 Two story brick and stone neoclassical row building with store front, four bays on the second level, arcuated windows with blind arches and sandstone surrounds surmounted by a pellet molding, with grilled rectangular vents above. Vermiculated sandstone pilasters at either side terminate above the roof line with molded stone finials bearing the date, 1891, and support an entablature enriched with both egg and dart and dentil moldings. Each pilaster has an Art Deco applied molded urn with a stylized fleur-de-lis design developing from it, dating from the 1930s. The building immediately to the south burned, exposing a rough finished brick fire wall.
