Monticello Apts

Originally located at 245 3rd Avenue North, the ca. 1909 Monticello was relocated in 2005 when threatened with demolition.  Built as a single-family residence, its conversion to an apartment building catering to seasonal residents in the 1920s indicates the transformation of the tourism and housing industries during the historic period.  The Monticello is also significant as an example of Neoclassical Revival style architecture exhibiting the transitional elements from the Queen Anne style.  As one of the oldest masonry houses in the city, the building is also significant for its rusticated concrete block construction.
