Wilder Building

Civil War hero Col. John T. Wilder built this Italianate structure in 1865. The mansard roof and decorative trim added a year later reflected the newly popular Second Empire architecture, making it the first 3-story building in Greensburg. The First National Bank resided here circa 1886. Beginning in 1924, the building was purchased by the local Oddfellows fraternal order (I.O.O.F.103). For over 100 years, ending in 1968, this site housed numerous drugstores for the residents of Greensburg.
