156 W. State Street
156 W. State Street is the address of a historic building in downtown Sycamore, Illinois. It is adjacent to the equally historic Townsend Building and one of 187 contributing properties to the Sycamore Historic District. The district was designated and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. Most of the original building at the location is no longer intact and has since been replaced or remodeled. Its top floor was, however, finished in a gray material similar to that which covers the facade today. The structure originally had a flat roof.

“And in these dark cells,
packed street after street,
souls live, hideous yet
O disfigured, defaced,
with no trace of the beauty
men once held so light.”
