114 E. Walnut Street - Chilhowee Historic District - Chilhowee, Missouri - NRHP Historic Districts - Contributing Buildings on Waymarking.com

This ca. 1905 one-story brick building was a harness shop early in the period of significance. During the teens and 1920s, it housed an ice cream parlor on one side and a post office on the other. This duplex building is one of two adjacent structures with sawtooth embellishment along the cornice. The recessed entrance has opposing east and west doorways and a transomed window is between them. Entrances and windows have been covered with plywood. Integrity of the facade is retained and this building enhances the district, but the structure is unsound because of a collapsed rear wall which is not apparent from the street. The interior is fire-damaged. The City of Chilhowee is considering reinforcement to prevent additional deterioration.
