This contributing structure is one of the more unassuming ones, not completely in line with the rest of the buildings. The site is one of several antique shops located on Kings Highway East in the Haddonfield Historic District.

I was not allowed to take any interior pictures. They were rather inhospitable to my waymarking advances. The building is a contributing structure to the Haddonfield Historic District. I did notice on the town website, this antique shop has hosted some local town events.

If you go to this WEBSITE, you will see where all the free parking in town is located as well as all the other historical areas. The are several close-by public parking areas. The public parking area takes nickels, dimes and quarters. There is also parking located right out front of the store if you can find a meter. It is a very busy location and people park there for hours at a time. Check it out!

One last thing, here is the LINK to the Haddonfield Historical Society where you can learn all about this historic district. Check that out as well!

The following narrative comes from the Haddonfield NRHP District nomination form, created March 16, 1979, evaluated April 18, 1980 and finally approved on July 21, 1982. The description is very sparse and doesn't tell too much.

"2-story flat roof, pent across front, recessed bulk window entrance, not harmonious with remodeled colonial facades on highway."
