The Thomas Slye House is a historic residence located north of Andrew, Iowa, United States. It is one of over 217 limestone structures in Jackson County from the mid-19th century, of which 101 are houses. The Slye house features a five bay symmetrical facade capped by a gable roof. Slye, a native of England, quarried the stones for the house himself and had a stonemason construct the house. The stones are of various sizes and shapes and laid in courses. The double end chimneys are found on only two other stone houses in the county, and the Slye and DeFries houses have them constructed in brick. Also similar to the DeFries House is the use of jack arches instead on lintels above the windows and doors. It is possible that both houses were constructed by the same stonemason. A single-story frame addition with an attached two-car garage was built onto the back of the houses at a later date. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.
The Henry Roling House is a historic building located northwest of Bellevue, Iowa, United States. It is one of over 217 limestone structures in Jackson County from the mid-19th century, of which 101 are houses. It is similar to most of the other houses in that it is a two-story structure that follows a rectangular plan, has cut stones laid in courses, dressed stone sills and lintel, and is capped with a gable roof. This house differs from most of the others in that it is four bays wide rather than three or five. The Theodore Niemann House a mile west of this one is the oldest of the stone houses in the county, and the Roling house, built shortly after it, is very similar to it. They are similar to the Luxembourgian houses in the region in having an even number of bays, although the Roling house was not stuccoed. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.
The Theodore Niemann House and Spring House are historic buildings located northwest of Bellevue, Iowa, United States. They are two of over 217 limestone structures in Jackson County from the mid-19th century, of which 101 are houses. The residence is similar to most of the other houses in that it is a two-story structure that follows a rectangular plan, has dressed stone sills and lintels, and is capped with a gable roof. It differs from most of the others in that it is four bays wide rather than three or five, and it was stuccoed. It may have been influenced by the Luxembourgian houses in Tete Des Morts Township to the north. They have an even number of bays and are stuccoed. The small, single-story, spring house to the southeast appears to be from the same time period as the residence. It is square and capped with a hip roof. Built in 1845, the Niemann house is believed to be the oldest stone house in the county. The buildings were listed together on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.
Upper Paradise is a historic building located west of Bellevue, Iowa, United States. It is one of over 217 limestone structures in Jackson County from the mid-19th century, of which 101 are houses. It is one of 12 houses with a hip roof, and it is one of two that are capped with a belvedere. It was built in 1849 into the side of a hill, so the south elevation has three floors and the north elevation has two. It features limestone sills and lintels. Another unusual feature of this house is that it was covered in a thick layer of stucco. The other stone houses in the county that were stuccoed were only given a thin layer. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.
The Building at 101 North Riverview Street is a historic commercial building located in Bellevue, Iowa, United States. It is one of over 217 limestone structures in Jackson County from the mid-19th century, of which 20 are commercial buildings. The two-floor structure was built around 1850 along the levee. Because the property slopes toward the Mississippi River, it appears to be a four-story building on the riverside. It was built to house a retail establishment, but its original use has not been determined. By 1885 it housed a dry goods store, and by 1894 it housed a hardware store and implement dealership, which was located here for decades. The rectangular plan structure is three bays wide, and it has a stone storefront. It was given a light coating of stucco and scored giving it an ashlar appearance. The second-floor windows have simple hoodmolds above them, while the rest of the windows have stone lintels. What differentiates this building from the others is that it is a freestanding commercial structure, capped with a hip roof. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.
