"101-105 East Main Street: The Allegree-Flannagan
Building is a good example of early twentieth-century mixed
retail and residential use. The building was constructed in
1916 and is one of a small group of extant twentieth-century
buildings representing the use of fine pressed brick and stone
window sills, continuous lintels and string courses. The
façade is capped with a series of brick corbels. In spite of
some water damage, the interior retains much of its original
character-defining elements, such as plaster walls and wood
trimwork. The original layout of corridors connecting rooms
and the larger living rooms overlooking Main Street provided
the best natural illumination and ventilation."
