Mississippi County Courthouse (Blytheville, Arkansas)
The Mississippi County Courthouse for the Chickasawba District is located at 200 West Walnut Street in Blytheville, Arkansas, one of Mississippi County's two seats (the other is Osceola). It is a 3 1⁄2-story brick-and-cut-sandstone structure, designed by the Pine Bluff firm of Selligman and Ellesvard, and built in 1919. It is a fine local example of Colonial Revival styling, with a recessed center entrance and a projecting modillioned cornice. The interior has been little altered since its construction.[2]
