Alden B. Dow Office and Lake Jackson City Hall

Built in 1943, it was designed by noted Michigan architect Alden B. Dow in Modern Movement architectural style.

Alden Dow, sometimes called the "Father of Lake Jackson" laid out the plan for the city's streets and designed all of the city's initial buildings, plus six models for varied styles of residences.

Picture windows, blue-gray walls, a brilliant green ceiling, magenta doors and trim—and the rest, yellow.

Dow's city-builder in the functional vest tells you that the color scheme of his office is typical of Lake Jackson.
