The bridge carried U.S. Route 52 over the river. It was also the terminus of both Iowa Highway 64 and Illinois Route 64. The bridge carried an average of 2,170 vehicles daily as of 2015, with 6% of that being truck traffic.
The Allstadt House and Ordinary was built about 1790 on land owned by the Lee family near Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, including Phillip Ludwell Lee, Richard Bland Lee and Henry Lee III. The house at the crossroads was sold to the Jacob Allstadt family of Berks County, Pennsylvania in 1811. Allstadt operated an ordinary, or tavern in the house, and a tollgate on the Harpers Ferry-Charles Town Turnpike, while he resided farther down the road in a stone house. The house was enlarged by the Allstadts c. 1830. The house remained in the family until the death of John Thomas Allstadt in 1923, the last survivor of John Brown's Raid.
The Hunter Hereford Ranch was first homesteaded in 1909 by James Williams in the eastern portion of Jackson Hole, in what would become Grand Teton National Park.

With its rustic log buildings it was used as the shooting location for the movie The Wild Country, while one structure with a stone fireplace was used in the 1963 movie Spencer's Mountain. The ranch is located on the extreme eastern edge of Jackson Hole under Shadow Mountain. It is unusual in having some areas of sagebrush-free pasture.

The Jeremiah Wood House is a historic residence located in Sabula, Iowa, United States. The house is associated with the settlement of Sabula, and the occupation of steamboat pilot. Dr. Enoch A.

He built the major part of this house six years later. The 2½-story stone house was built on the banks of the Mississippi River.

The Henry Lubben House, Smokehouse and Springhouse are a collection of historic buildings located north of Baldwin, Iowa, United States. They are three of over 217 limestone structures in Jackson County from the mid-19th century, of which 101 were houses, 13 were springhouses, and 36 were other farm related buildings. What makes the Lubben buildings unique is that the three stone buildings are grouped together on the farmstead. The wood frame farm buildings are located immediately to the north. The stonework on the house is coursed-cut stone that is believed to have been quarried just west of the house. The windows have dressed stone sills and lintels. It also features "high style" elements such as the denticulated wooden cornice. The house is L-shaped with a single story stone section on the back, which is original to the house, capped by a wood frame second floor that was added later. An enclosed wooden porch on the front was added in 1931. The quality of the stonework on the springhouse and the smokehouse are of a lesser quality.
The DeFries House, Barn and Carpenter Shop are a collection of historic buildings located north-west of Andrew, Iowa, United States. They are three of over 217 limestone structures in Jackson County from the mid-19th century, of which 101 were houses, nine were barns, and 36 were other farm-related buildings. The stones used in the construction are of various sizes and shapes and laid in courses. The double end chimneys on the house are found on only two other stone houses in the county, and the DeFries and Thomas Slye houses have them constructed in brick. Also similar to the Slye house is the use of jack arches instead of lintels above the windows and doors. It is possible that both houses were constructed by the same stonemason. While the stonemason for the Syle house is unknown, John Christoph "Christian" Blessing, who was trained in his native Germany, built this collection of buildings for the DeFries family. He completed the house in 1858 and the horse barn in 1862. The carpenter shop was built in either 1858 or 1862.
The Insane Asylum at the County Poor Farm is a historic building located north of Andrew, Iowa, United States. It is one of over 217 limestone structures in Jackson County from the mid-19th century. Built in 1872, this 2½-story structure is composed of stone blocks that vary somewhat in shape and size, and they were laid in courses. Because of its late date compared with the other historic stone buildings in the county, it features segmental arches instead of lintels. By the time it was built limestone construction in the county had already reached its peak. Adam Strasser and Frank Schlecht were contractors from Bellevue, Iowa who were responsible for its construction, as was local stonemason John Weis. The other 19th-century buildings from the poor farm have been removed, and replaced by the county care facility across the highway. This building is now part of a demonstration farm. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.
The John and Amanda Bigler Drake House is a historic residence located west of Winterset, Iowa, United States. The Drake's settled in Madison County in 1853.

This two-story structure has a two-story addition composed of locally quarried ashlar and rubble stone. It features a lintel course, a protruding water table, the main entryway has an elaborate transom and sidelights, and stone chimneys on both gable ends. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987. When the house was nominated for the National Register it was still owned by the Drake family.
