It is a false-front building of frame construction built in 1872. It is listed in the National Register of Historic Places;[1][3] its historical significance derives from its age, its architectural design, and its association with John Patterson and with author-photographer Wright Morris. History and descriptionThe Patterson Law Office was built in the same year as John Patterson, a native of Ireland, came to Lone Tree (now Central City), Nebraska. Patterson built a law practice in Merrick County housed in this building. He was a well-known trlal lawyer and county attorney, played an important role in the development of Central City and Merrick County, and served as county superintendent of schools.[3][4] The law office is a one-story, false-fronted building with gable roof. It rests on a stone foundation and exhibits Greek Revival elements in the door, window, pilaster and cornice detailing. It has two rooms lined with wainscot paneling.[3] The building is historically significant for several reasons. It is one of the earliest known false-frame commercial buildings in Nebraska predating the majority of 19th century commercial buildings in Nebraska by nearly 20 years. It is associated with a significant figure, John Patterson, in the development of Central City and Merrick County.[3][4] It also has relationships to Wright Morris appearing in his literary works.[5] See also
