Erected by Samuel W. Mobley between 1858 & 1859, this one story brick structure with basement, features decorative curved cornice, stucco facade and handsome facade. It once housed Pryor and McKee Drug Store<\/span><\/a> in the early 20th century. Known as the Heyman Building, this commercial structure most likely (R&R’s suggested history), is that it was constructed by George and Sarah Heyman in circa 1873, or at least heavily remodeled at that time. It has also served as the location of the Star Shaving Parlor.<\/p>\n

In 2016, it is the offices of G. J. Winters. \u00a0Click on the More Information (History)<\/span>\u00a0link, found under the primary image for added information.<\/p>\n
