"The expansion of the commercial district to the east that began with the Roop Building in 1894, continued between 1895 and 1900 with the addition of new buildings at 124, 126, and 128 Newnan Street. This collection of storefronts on the north side of Newnan Street included a variety of businesses during the 20th century, including groceries, a bowling alley, a barber shop, and a Singer sewing machine store." ~ NRHP Nomination Form


"Commercial buildings were also constructed on the north side of Newnan Street, which served multiple purposes throughout the twentieth century.

" ... Development in recent years tends to be confined to areas beyond the square, particularly along Newnan Street at the east end of the district. ...
... Construction during the 1910s and 1920s tended to be along Newnan and Alabama Streets.
