The Hotel Alex Johnson in Rapid City had revered swastikas in its tile work.

Two houses on SE Division Street in Portland, OR, used to have swastikas in their chimney brickwork in contrasting colors of brick. This was in the 80s, and I’m sure those chimneys have been demolished or covered over by now.

They were around 24th Ave., one on either side of Division. I don’t go to Portland any more, so I won’t check.

The Corn Palace in Mitchel, SD in about 1908 also had a swastika design. The swastika was a common Native American design long before it was taken over as a symbol by the Nazis.
