- Description:
- Caption on photo: "The Octagon House was the residence of Colonel Whitney Jones who was Auditor General in 1855-58. This photograph shows the moving of the building so that Arbaugh's store could be built on the site. It was used as a warehouse until 1929 when it was demolished and the site made into a parking lot." This is incorrect; the building was razed in 1935. Three copies. Originally part of the Carl Dalrymple Collection.

- Description:
- Annexed 1958. Photos are a part of the "Visual Views of the Elementary Schools in the Lansing School District" project of the Lansing Area Community Resources Workshop in cooperation with Michigan State University. It was compiled by Priscilla L. Shaver who was a teacher at Lewton School. The director was Frances B. Schneider. Each included school has a photo of the school building and playground. The album was created to aid students who were being moved to new schools in the hopes that they could use it to know where their new school was and what it would look like. Priscilla Shaver attended the 1971 Lansing Area Community Resources Workshop to aid in assembling this project.
