Our offices are conveniently located at 318 Highland Avenue, New Castle, Pa 16101, in the Beautiful Lower North Hill National Historic District. Our building was constructed in 1901 as the personal residence of industrialist George W. Johnson and is beautifully described by the Lawrence County Historical Society as:
A two and one-half story square plan Colonial Revival residence has a coursed limestone foundation, running bond brick walls, hip roof with north-south main ridge, and tall interior end chimneys with corbelled caps. It has symmetrical bowed bays, prominent, classically inspired roof dormers with open pediments, Ionic pilaster and decorative round top windows. There is a central stained glass window at the second floor with stained glass circular windows to each side. The home was built for George W. Johnson (1847-1919) in 1901. Johnson was a leading local industrialist involved in limestone, iron and bronze production. He was principal owner of the American Car and Ship Hardware Company in 1901, which he later purchased and renamed Johnson Bronze. The home was designed by local architect Harry W. Wirsing. It now the home of the law offices of Angelo A. Papa and Christopher A. Papa. http://www.lawrencechs.com/walking_tour.html.
