2 | Overland Building | September 21, 1978 (#78001034) | February 9, 1987 | 8th and Main Sts. |
Boise | Renamed the Eastman Building in 1926, designed by Tourtellotte and Company. Originally four stories when it opened in 1905 as the Overland Building, two more were added in 1910.[13] It was renamed following the owner's death in 1926 and was filled with legal, dental, and medical offices. It gradually fell from favor and it was acquired in 1972 by the Boise Redevelopment Agency for a proposed downtown mall.[14] Slated for demolition in 1978, preservationist interests intervened and it stood idle for nearly another decade. An offer was made in 1981 to move it several blocks south to the 8th Street Marketplace.[15] With plans finally set for its refurbishment, the Eastman Building was destroyed two days later by fire in January 1987, fought by more than one hundred firefighters for a over day and a half,[16][17] and was demolished soon after.[18] | |
