Cox Building (Maysville, Kentucky)
Brothers George L. and William Hopkinson Cox began construction of the Richardsonian Romanesque Cox Building at Third and Market Streets in Maysville, Kentucky in 1886 and completed construction in 1887. The project also included the construction of seven contiguous brick homes extending south along the east side of Market Street to Fourth Street.
The City of Maysville purchased the building in 2006 for $200,000 as a restoration project. The roof, fourth and fifth floors were destroyed by fire on November 9, 2010. Restoration work continued and the completed work was dedicated at 11:00 am on September 7, 2012.
