Construction on this two story brick business block commenced on September 25, 1905 with the laying of the foundation. Completion took place around the First of June of the next year. The original tenants were the Lewistown Bakery, operated by Francis Sullivan, and C. E. Shoemaker & Co., a mortgage company, while the Knights of Pythias met in an upstairs room.
After moving in, the bakery apparently partnered with the Fergus County Tea Company, operating both from the same space. This is one of the ads placed by the duo, appearing on Page 4 of the September 21, 1906 issue of the Fergus County Argus.
