The William Dyas Barn is a historic agricultural building located south of Bellevue, Iowa, United States. It is one of over 217 limestone structures in Jackson County from the mid-19th century, of which 58 are non-residential, agricultural related structures. The stones used to build the barn were quarried, but they vary widely in size and shape. The larger stones are at the bottom of the structure, and they diminish in size the higher up on the walls. An unusual feature on this barn is that the gable ends are not stone, but timber. The Dyas family were among the first settlers in Jackson County, arriving in 1833. They built five houses in this valley. William Dyas built a brick house along with this barn. It is believed there were many more stone barns in the county, but they have been removed over the years. That gives this barn the added significance of being an example of a vanishing building type. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.

Grant Vocational High School, also known as the Board of Education and the Cedar Rapids School District Central Office, is a historic building located in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, United States. Completed in 1915, this is a rare example of a vocational high school in Iowa as only a handful were ever built. While it offered various student activities in athletics and the arts, its curriculum was based on the manual arts instead of humanities or college preparatory courses. A Progressive Era idea, vocational education began in Cedar Rapids in 1904. Within a year there was a call for a dedicated vocational high school. There was much debate as the local school district's regular high school was beyond capacity and there was a need for new elementary schools. Efforts to build the school began with the passage of a bond referendum in 1911. Cedar Rapids architect William J. Brown designed the three-story, brick Prairie School structure and it was built by the F.P. Gould Company of Omaha.
