Among the types of buildings, for which Levi Scofield acquired fame as an architect, were penitentiaries. In 1886, he designed the Ohio State Reformatory at Mansfield (shown in this 1900-1910 postcard) as an "intermediate" penitentiary for young offenders. Scofield also designed the Athens, Ohio Lunatic Aylum (1868) and the North Carolina State Penitentiary in Raleigh (1870). | Creator: Ohio History ConnectionDownload Original File
