Reverend Little's Young Ladies Seminary
Reverend Little's Young Ladies Seminary is a historic seminary building at 541 6th Avenue in Council Bluffs, Iowa.
The Italianate style building was constructed in 1867 as a school for women, which was founded by a Presbyterian minister, George Little. Unfortunately, "()lthough the Rev. Little’s school received very favorable publicity, he encountered great difficulty in collecting the money pledged to construct his building. On Jan. 1, 1870, his board of trustees informed him that no more payments would be forthcoming. The Rev. Little closed the school, filed suit against the trustees for the money due him and eventually was awarded title to the property. He sold the building and moved to Nebraska where he became a missionary."〔Mary Lou McGinn "Reverend Little’s Young Ladies Seminary, 541 Sixth Ave" June 11, 2012 http://www.southwestiowanews.com/council_bluffs/news/house-on-sixth-avenue-was-once-a-seminary-for-young/article_539f2728-b3db-11e1-964c-0019bb2963f4.html?mode=story〕 Several prominent businessmen later owned the building, and in the early 1900s it was converted to apartments. The building was added to the National Register in 1982. It currently houses a law office.
