Property Description
Originally gifted by Fred L. Maytag to the Salvation Army in 1928, this historic downtown Newton landmark has long served as a backdrop to the city's most meaningful moments—community dances, performances, gatherings, and quiet moments of connection. Set just off the courthouse square, the building's brick façade and soaring interior spaces speak not only to its architectural significance, but to its enduring role in the life of the town. For nearly a century, it welcomed neighbors through its doors—offering not just shelter, but purpose, presence, and pride. Today, it waits patiently for its next chapter. With its grand rooms, original character, and deep sense of place, this property invites a new vision: a jazz lounge wrapped in velvet and brass, a wedding venue steeped in candlelight and story, an artist's studio, a cultural hub, or something entirely unexpected. This is more than a building—it is an inheritance of memory and meaning, ready to be reawakened by someone bold enough to imagine what comes next.
