The Princess Sweet Shop of Iowa Falls, Iowa is listed on the National Register of Historic Places because it is "an outstanding example of Art Deco design from 1935. The Carrara Glass façade, and streamlined woodwork are typical of Art Deco design of the 1920s and 1930s, but a rarity in a small town in Iowa."[2] It is still in operation as a soda fountain.
