Additional Information: | Previously surveyed in 1992 and mapped as 20 on USGS Franksville. This one-story building has a facade that is crowned by a tall stepped concrete block parapet wall that hides the east end of the gable roof that shelters the building. The side elevations of the building are both five-bays-wide and each bay still contains its original six-over-four-light double hung window. The main facade features an entrance door to the left, a small display window to the right of it, and a large flat-arched garage door opening to the right of the window that dominates the facade. This building is now vacant and is used for storage (2005). |
