HISTORIC BUILDING circa 1890
134 FIRST ST.

Since 1890 this location has
been a barber shop. Half the
building has been an insurance
agency and jewelry store. A
new barber pole was installed
in 1908. It is now in Miller's
museum.


DOWNTOWN ASSOCIATION 1992


The building is in good repair and is occupied by a barber shop.
Date of Construction: c. 1895

This brick one-part commercial block has a rectangular footprint. Fenestration defines the storefront, which has three bays. Openings include three-quarter-light panel wood doors flanking a polygonal three-part bay window. The wood-framed storefront windows rest on a brick bulkhead. Paint covers the transom window glass. Additional character-defining features include the original pressed metal cornice, historic pressed metal siding, and the historic three-quarter-light entrance doors.

This building retains its architectural integrity and clearly conveys its historic associations, contributing element to the historic district.
