Kitchens near a courthouse square rebuilt in 1909-1911
The Boone County courthouse's current Classical Revival form dates to 1909-1911, and many of the homes in the neighborhoods that grew up around that square carry original or early-twentieth-century kitchen footprints, small by modern standards, and often requiring a full layout rethink to accommodate contemporary appliances and storage.

Lebanon's newer subdivisions, built well after that early courthouse-square construction wave, generally offer more flexible starting points for a kitchen remodel — larger original footprints that need updated finishes and storage rather than a full structural overhaul.
