NOTES
Additional Information:This two story brick building has been substantially remodeled, the first story storefront has been reworked with metal panels added, and the size of second story windows has been reduced. The segmental openings and arches remain intact. The corbelling and raised panels enliven the facade at the cornice. The second story of this building is basically identical to 812 Main St. 1/34. This building was built around 1883 according to the city tax rolls. It was present in 1884 according to the Sanborn-Perris map of that year. It was built by Cornelius Heil, a local merchant and used as a combination saloon and grocery store.
