M.B. Lockett building 1896 - Georgetown, Texas

The architectural and historical development of the community have been interrelated and are reflected in the Williamson County Courthouse Historic District. Williamson County and the City of Georgetown were organized simultaneously in 1848. The town-site chosen was located in an undeveloped frontier section, and the first town lots in the new village were sold on July 4, 1848. By the end of the year, a handful of log buildings had been put up near the "common", as the Square was then called. The majority of the buildings reflect the Victorian commercial style (1870-1902). Built in 1896, the M.B. Lockett building is a two-story, four-bay limestone building with a red brick main facade. Cast iron columns support the main floor. The building has an angled comer with an oriel corbeled out from the wall of the second floor. A pressed tin parapet displays the date "1896" and "M.B. Lockett".

This building along with many others in the Williamson County Courthouse Historic District are listed as contributing structures in the listing on the National Register of Historic Places. The district was added on July 26, 1977 and more information can be found in the original documents submitted for listing consideration located here: catalog.archives.gov/id/40973996

Three bracketed photos were taken with a handheld Nikon D5200 and combined with Photomatix Pro to create this HDR image. Additional adjustments were made in Photoshop CS6.

"For I know the plans I have for you", declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." ~Jeremiah 29:11
