This structure was built in 1880 and still supports the same type of business as it did the day it opened. The facade is adorned with bricks that were molded at a brickyard here in Carthage, large windows, and a decorative cornice. The building appears in excellent condition and ready to withstand many more years of commerce.
Zooming In! is a column dedicated to the history of Carthage. Every Wednesday since July of 2009, Wade Utter has photographed and exposed the history behind new and century-old structures in the Carthage area.
