Summary

[edit]
Description Built in 1921, this Renaissance Revival-style building was designed by Claude and Starck for the Castle and Doyle Fuel Company, replacing the former Madison Fire Department Station 2 that had been previously located on the site. The building is clad in terra cotta with decorative motifs, including urns, flowers, and plants, with the pilasters featuring the richest detail highlighted by recessed green glazed backgrounds contrasting with the white reliefs, two doorways flanking a large plate glass window on the first floor with prism glass transoms, the words “Coal Castle & Doyle Coal” over the doors and first floor window, a band of decorative geometric trim below the second floor window sill, one-over-one windows on the second floor, a wave motif above the second floor windows, a cornice with greek key and egg and dart motifs, and a stepped parapet enclosing a low-slope roof. The building is a contributing structure in the State Street Historic District, listed on the Wisconsin State Register of Historic Places.
