"Commercial Vernacular or Boomtown (c. 1911) two-story wood frame retail store with recent vinyl cladding. The facade of this building features a boomtown false front. The false front is capped by a projecting wooden cornice. Two modern vinyl windows are present in the second story, and large modern paired windows flank the recessed front door. A c. 2003 photo shows small awnings on the second story windows, and a continuous awning over tripartite storefront windows at street level. The building was clad in thin clapboards..."
