Additional Information: | Map code 0709-134-1310-3. "This large frame building was erected in 1867 for J.C. Wicker who advertised a stock of coal and stoves. The mansardic third floor was probably added when the building was subsequently expanded to the rear and converted to a boarding house, probably in 1890-1891, by a later proprietor, Christian A. Horstmeyer, who called it the "East Madison House."
