Montgomery Ward Building
This commercial structure was built in 1929 for the Plainview Montgomery Ward store. Located on land owned by J.H. Slaton, Guy Jacob and others, the building housed the business for almost 40 years. The architectural style, which features detailing of glazed terra cotta and multicolored tile, was utilized in several of the company's other Texas stores. The building now serves as a reminder of Plainview's early commercial development. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark - 1982
