It was funded by a $5,000 Carnegie grant upon a second application, after first being rejected. It was designed for just $100 by "noted Lincoln architect" George A. Berlinghof, who happened to be working in Chadron on a larger commission. The contractor was the Black Hills Company, a Deadwood architecture and contracting firm.[2]
