| Additional Information: | This two-story frame, industrial building has been modified for a number of uses over time. Purely utilitarian in design, it has a shallow pitched roof, metal gpanel siding, and six over six light windows. The entry has been substantially modified for the building's present use. It is of some architectural interest as an example of an early industrial building type. It is prominently located at the major vehicular entry point to downtown Sturgeon Bay and, because of its present use, helps to establish the nautical flavor of Sturgeon Bay. |
