| Additional Information: | Two-story orange brick veneered building; some brick courses indented to create an even, horizontally striped pattern; three double-hung windows on secnod floor. The facade is of brick, the predominant material in the district, it is two-stories high and displays the typical three-windows-over-storefront configuration. However, it is considered to be non-contributing because it is not 50 years old nor is it of exceptional significance. Used in the 19th century as a dry goods store and grocery, this building has been a tavern for many years. |
