The Stevens County Historical Society is located in a Carnegie Library built in 1915. Its ornate architecture includes special two-tone, Roman-style brick veneer with ¼-inch beaded mortar joints and polished granite columns. SEH designed a concept plan that would provide the museum space and accessibility upgrades needed to accommodate the increasing popularity and use of the facility while preserving the historic landmark.
