The Leipsic Village Hall was a historic village and township hall in the village of Leipsic in the northwestern part of the U.S. state of Ohio. Built in 1904, [1] the village hall was a large three-story brick building with a corner tower. [2] For a community as small as Leipsic (population 2,236 at the 2000 census [3] ), it was a very elaborate building: the tower was crowned with battlements, and corbelling was used to support a significant portion of the roofline. At one time, the building served a wide range of municipal purposes: besides meeting rooms for elected village and township leaders, it contained space for a jail, the fire station, a community center, municipal offices, a library, and the mayor's courtroom. [4]
In 1979, the building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as the "Leipsic City Hall," [1] even though Ohio law provides that communities with fewer than five thousand residents are villages. [5] Designation as a historic site on the federal level does not affect the rights of property owners, including their right to demolish the property; [6] therefore, the village of Leipsic has been able to destroy the building. [2] Although the site of the village hall is now occupied by a parking lot, [7] the building remains listed on the National Register. [1]

The Winton Place Methodist Episcopal Church is a historic church building in the Winton Place neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, United States that was constructed as the home of a congregation of the Methodist Episcopal Church in the late nineteenth century. The congregation grew out of a group that was founded in 1856; although the members erected their first building in 1860, they were not officially organized until 1872. Among the leading members of the congregation was Samuel Hannaford, a prominent Cincinnati architect. When the congregation chose to build a new church building in 1884, Hannaford was chosen as the architect for the project. At this time, Hannaford was near to the peak of his prestige: he had ended a partnership with another architect seven years before, and his reputation was growing with his designs of significant Cincinnati-area buildings such as the Cincinnati Music Hall.
