Holland Apartments

Holland Apartments is a historic apartment complex located at 324-326 N. Vermilion St. in Danville, Illinois. The building was constructed in two sections; the northern half was built in 1906, while the southern half was completed in 1927. Both sections of the building are designed in the Dutch Revival style; architect Charles M. Lewis developed the original design in 1906. The front and side facades each feature multiple stepped gables; the front-facing gables are flanked by dormers. The first floor, which originally housed four stores and a restaurant, features arched entrances, a brick parapet, and extensive corbelling. The Dutch Revival style is rare in the Midwest, and the building is the only Dutch Revival structure in the Danville or Champaign areas.[2]
