UNKNOWN CASTLE

I received E-Mail that said:

There is a "castle" in Lincoln, Nebraska that has been turned into apartments. I'm sorry I can't give more information, but perhaps the Lincoln Chamber of Commerce could send a picture. The location of the castle is approximately 18th or 19th between "B" Street and "D" street. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful, but it would be great for your site.

Later, I received E-Mail that said:

I saw on your web site that you have mention of the Castle in Lincoln, Nebraska and that you were looking for photos. I am attaching photos I recently took. I have just rented an apartment in the historic Castle and will be moving in sometime soon. It is a beautiful building and immaculately maintained. It is located at 1845 "D" Street, Lincoln, NE. I do not know much of the history yet but hope to find out more about it soon.
