Regarding 1024 Noble Street. Excerpt from the National Register nomination for the Downtown Anniston Historic District, which includes this building:
1024Noble Street, 1888. Levi-Woolworth Building-Dollar Store Three story brick three bay building, attached to buildings on either side, but towering above them. Store front on first floor; above, central bay has paired windows, the side bays with triple windows, segmentally arched with double brick surrounds on the second floor, square heads on the third. The bays are articulated with brick pilasters embellished with medallions and variegated brick designs. At the parapet level above the third floor are a dentil molding and floriated terra cotta frieze. The middle unit of the facade rises in a raked pediment, battered at each end with stylized classical fan motif, and punctuated with geometric and floral decorative terra cotta triple panels. Woolworth's moved into the building from next door at 1026 in the 1929 and at that time modernized the store front and bricked in the windows on the upper levels.
