The image below shows a photograph taken circa. 1890 of Lower Town, Harpers Ferry. The Armory Market is on the lower left. St. Peter's Church and School House appear to have received a fresh coat of paint around this time, as did the bell tower. Note the cupola on top of the School House and the matching design of the top of the bell tower.
