City workhouse castle
City workhouse castle or Vine Street workhouse castle is a castle structure located at 21st and Vine in Kansas City, Missouri. Built in 1897 the building was originally designed as a city jail for petty offenders such as vagrants and debtors. As a part of their sentence these prisoners were expected to work; the women sewed prison uniforms and the men labored for the city's public works department. The building itself was constructed using labor of the prisoners who also mined the limestone onsite. Designed by prominent Kansas CIty architects, A. Wallace Love and James Oliver Hog, the structure was built in a romanesque revival style because it was considered in vogue at the time. In 1924 the jail closed and the building would be repurposed more than a dozen times until it was eventually abandoned in 1972 〔http://kcur.org/post/what-kansas-citys-vine-street-castle accessed Aug. 31 2014〕
