McKitrick, Dr., Office
Also known as: Kuhn, Dr. Roger, Office
Why it's listed
This small wood-frame building at 22 North High Street in Dublin, Ohio, was put up around 1900 by Dr. Lewellyn McKitrick as his medical office. He lived in the stone house next door and walked over to see patients here. The structure is vernacular in style and sits on a stone foundation under a metal gable roof. It is a rectangular building with a projecting bay and a small porch forming an L. Spool-turned trim decorates the porch and the spandrels around the windows. The porch addition and attached garage came later, and the original building was nearly square. The office sits close to the street with no landscaping. Inventory notes describe the interior as in good condition and the exterior as fair, and the building has continued as a doctor's office and residence. It was included in a survey of Washington Township historic resources, which recognized it as a surviving example of an early village professional office in Dublin.
Significance in brief: The inventory records the building as a doctor's office built by Dr. Lewellyn McKitrick around the turn of the century, who lived in the stone house next door and used this building as his office. It is part of a multiple-property survey of Washington Township historic resources. The form offers little further discussion of significance.

What listing means for this property
For an income-producing building, listing (individually or as a contributing building in a district) is the gateway to the 20% federal rehabilitation tax credit on qualified rehabilitation costs, often stackable with state credits. Work claiming the credit must follow the Secretary of the Interior's Standards and be approved in advance.
Listing does not restrict a private owner acting without federal money or permits; where federal funding or licensing is involved, Section 106 review applies.
