NOTES
Additional Information:2012- "Shortly after the large building to the south was constructed, Roy Thomas had this building attached to the north party wall. The building is two-stories in height and faced with dark red brick. The second story openings are segmentally-arched and filled with single-light sashes in very poor condition. A period door covers the entrance to the second floor and the original storefront is heavily remodeled. It is enclosed with wood paneling, a very small window, and a modem entry door. The brick bulkhead is extant.

According to tax rolls, this building was erected by Roy Thomas in 1914. According to local sources, there may have been a barber shop in this location."
