i'm an aspiring author (currently only writing stories for the enjoyment of friends and family), and i was in the process of creating a character with this particular building and history in their background.. Is there any pictures, or additional information i could find here? i'm looking, specifically, for a picture around the 1930's?? But i have yet to find any between it's original in 1885, it's stone reconstruction in 1910, and of course, it's final reconstruction in the 1950's... i feel that there's a gap, but if there were truly no changes in this building, or it's surrounding counterparts (which i would love to have a full view of the land, but i can't find anywhere at all in the time period i need... ): ) then i'd be more than happy to use the 1910 photographs i've found of the main building. Any help, if you have any, would be appreciated!

Thank you for reading!
