Constructed 1855-56-1940. Originally two Federal style structures with party walls. Later enlarged to include a third brick building, unified by the overhanging cast iron gallery. From shops and private living quarters it evolved into a popular 19th century hotel and center of social life. The La Clede Hotel continued to function as a hotel until 1963.
