In 1860 The Pump House Grille was two of twelve merchant establishments being built by entrepreneur A.H. Morrison and they would become known as the Morrison Block. This 200 block on the West Side of State Street still exists today. Front facades, that were changed possible every twenty years, mask the building's true age. Obscure clues foretell their original Greek revival and mid 1800's Italianate charm. Inside tin ceilings, tongued beaded sheathing and six-inch square beams sporting square nail heads can be ferreted out. In the Pump House second floor brick walls are cut off beams from the original Greek revival ceiling that was raised later to the more fashionable Italianate height. Stroll the alley and you will see the original Greek revival six on six pane windows and high threshold double shipping delivery doors. At the second story level there is another shipping delivery door where goods were probably hoisted up by pulley.
