| Additional Information: | Builder was Kasinski. Building permits state that S.J. Sawicki hired Bernard Kolpacki & Co. to design this building in 1897. In 1910, Sanborn maps show a photo studio on the second floor and a 1924 directory cites the building as the home of Andrew Volk’s bakery, Kasimir Jaglowski’s photo studio and John Jastroch’s law office. Baker Frank Kullmann owned the building by 1932 and continued to rent to Jastroch’s law office into the 1940s. Kullmann maintained his bakery business into the 1960s |
