Historic name: Schmid Brothers Grocery Building (built 1899)

About This Property

The Schmid Brothers had this elaborate, two-story Romanesque Revival building constructed to house a grocery, feed store and upstairs saloon. Its architecture is especially noteworthy, including ornate metal leafed capitals above the columns on the second floor. The first floor storefront is original and typical of its period, and the building still has a hand-crank freight elevator.
