This is a rather unimpressive structure which nevertheless "adds" to the historical community of Moorestown as a contributing structure. It seems as insignificant as the other 1-story, brick businesses to the left and right of it.

This two-for-one business structure is owned by the Peter Pan company. The company owns other businesses on West Main Street as well. These businesses house the Peter Pan Gift Shop & the Peter Pan Bakery.

Located at 119 West Main Street in downtown Moorestown, this is one of 351 contributing buildings/structures to this historic district. Most of the buildings on this side of the street and in this immediate location are all similar to this one.

The Department of the Interior sent me the following narrative/information on this house:
"c.1920. 1-story Georgian Revival commercial brick building, shop fronts above tile base. Recessed central entrance with glazed double doors. Tile, simulating Spanish pantile, pent roof which features central pediment. - Contributing.
