The 1904-1910boom saw the construction of many public buildings. Arcola's brick plant and planing mill were developed to meet the demand for good materials. The durable tan brick is a dominant component of most of these buildings. World War I spelled the end of the boom period. Construction in stone and brick virtually ceased.
From its splendid town hall/opera house to its banks, businesses, hotel and churches, Arcola's founding fathers left structure that evoke the strength, energy and vision of the time.
