"Tariff records from 1892 lists this duo as a saloon, cigar factory and dwelling. The owner was Charles Boettcher, also a butcher. Since 1917, four generations of the Hoffmann family have operated a butcher shop with its smokehouse here. The slaughter-house remains in the rear though no longer in operation."
