Notes
  • Significance: The north end of downtown Hearne developed after the arrival of the second railroad (The International and Great Northern) in 1871. The building now known as the Smith-Welch Memorial Library was erected in 1892 on the site of an earlier wooden store. It remains one of the most ornate buildings in the downtown area reflecting the prosperity of Hearne in the late nineteenth century. The upper portion of the front façade has Classical details in pressed metal on a wood frame. Above the main floor is a mezzanine with an open well which allowed light to enter through a skylight and second floor windows. The building was deeded to the city in 1971 when it was converted for use as a public library.
