About This Property

A charming building with a 2-story section in the back.  Fail Drug Co was established and had a popular soda fountain. Dr. Cozby and Dr. Marsh were on the 2nd floor at one time. In the 1970's this building was home of a sporting goods store, Sportsman's Corner.  Downstairs on Main Street there was a dollar store, movie rental store and then a pool hall for teens. 
Lastly, while maintaining the building integrity a complete remodel was completed and provides downtown living in upscale apartments on each floor.
