The Johnston Memorial Building is a historic building in Wallace, Nebraska. It was built in 1921 in memory of John R. Johnston, the founder of the Johnston Brokerage Company, a Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania-based window glass manufacturing company, who vacationed in Wallace.[2] The building was designed in a "pleasing" combination of Prairie School and Craftsman styles by noted architect Francis W. Fitzpatrick.[2] It was built by McMichael Bros.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since March 20, 1986.[1]
