The Iowa Wind Mill and Pump Company Office and Warehouse, also known as Iowa Pipe and Supply Company, Cedar Rapids Presort, and the Mott Building, is a historic building located in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, United States. This is the only extant building of a complex of buildings along the Cedar River used by the Iowa Wind Mill and Pump Company. The three-story structure is a simplified version of Victorian architecture. The thick brick walls were a form of fire protection and insulation, while the heavy timber for the interior support structure created large open space that was required to house industrial equipment, production activities, and warehouse storage. The tall windows allowed for interior lighting and ventilation. The first floor provided finished space used for offices. Iowa Wind Mill and Pump Company began as a branch of the Kendallville, Indiana based Flint & Walling Manufacturing Company around 1890. They began building their complex of buildings along the Cedar River and the tracks of the Chicago and North Western Railroad the following year. This building was completed in 1902.

Waynick's store before he opened his own general store on the town square. The store remained in business until his children retired in 1974. This house replaced the family's former residence that had been destroyed in a March 1918 fire. Crozier hired local architect William L. Perkins to design this house. It is the earliest known residential example of his work. The two-story brick structure shows influences of the American Craftsman and Prairie School styles. The Prairie School is found in the house's horizontal orientation, the lowpitched hip roof, broad eaves, paired windows, the two brick belt courses, and the solarium on the south elevation. The Craftsman influences are found in the French doors, built-in cabinets, and paneling on the interior. Bricks from the house that was destroyed as well as the broad window in the first floor study, its fireplace mantel, and the kitchen windows were reused in this house. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.

Miles Kellogg bought a 160-acre (65 ha) farm from Oliver Smith and built this stone house, settling here in 1857. It is a variation of the split-level home that was realized on the exterior. It had a raised basement with the entrance to the main floor on the gable end and was a one-half flight above ground level. The main family entrance was a one-half flight below ground to the basement. The lower level, which contained a main family room-kitchen combination, was plastered the same as the main level, which was where the formal parlor was located. It also had a finished attic. The exterior was composed of rubblestone on the back and sidewalls and finished cut and quarry-faced stone on the main facade. The trim is simple. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2017.
