The Sioux City Public Museum is housed in a Romanesque-style mansion built in the early 1890s by John Peirce, an early Sioux City realtor and developer. Built of Sioux Falls quartzite, it is one of the most spectacular homes ever built in Sioux City and features stylish paneling, ornately carved woodwork and staircase. Peirce lost his fortune in the panic of 1893 and the house was raffled off in a national lottery in 1900. During the next eight years, several different owners occupied the structure.

Re-View was responsible for full restoration of the windows and installing custom fabricated historic wood storm windows. The onsite restoration of the windows was tedious since the structure had settled and suffered water damage. Re-View performed full sash, frame, and hardware restoration. Re-View installed special hardware on the storm windows to allow for quick access to ventilation and a built-in locking mechanism.
