Travis Building
Built in 1906 for $8000, the Star Market has a pink pressed brick façade. The two upstairs windows are trimmed with segmentally arched lintels that have hanging pendant designs. A decorative brick band and a corbelled brick cornice complete the façade details. The first story is covered with aluminum panels to form a unified first floor façade with the Bigelow Block, which adjoins to the south.
