MONTPELIER PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

All our downtown properties have been designated Historic Structures by the State of Vermont and the United States Congress. We manage 18 buildings on the Historic Registry.

Many of the buildings are located in the downtown Montpelier business district or in the surrounding neighborhoods. It is a short walk to downtown.

Our Company has spent over 35 years maintaining the integrity of Montpelier's historic aesthetic keeping with the tradition of the City's identity and updating building systems as necessary for modern convenience.

22-24 Elm Street, IOOF Hall, 1857/1911.

Brick, four stories, flat roof. This building was originally the Washington County Jail and had a gable front facade of three-bays with the present Doric flat roof portico protecting the door. The eaves side along Elm Street was six-bays long. The building was built in 1857 and used as the County Jail until 1899 at which time it was sold and the present (10 Elm Street) jail was built. In 1909, the International Order of Odd Fellows, Vermont Lodge No. 2, purchased the building. In 1911, they greatly enlarged the old jail house by making it two-bays wider and two stories higher. The half-size fourth floor windows are located at the building's entablature and have a star-patterned mullion. The cornice is supported by brackets with pendants and a granite date stone in the frieze is inscribed "IOOF, 1910." The door, under a bracketed classical entry porch supported by Tuscan columns, is surrounded by full sidelights and a tall multi-pane transom. Some of the building's windows have two-over-two light sash while others have six-over-six light sash. On the north facade, a third floor window has been converted to a door and a modern metal fire escape leads from it to the ground.
