Ippolito Cascarelli was a property investor in Clifton at the turn of the 20th century. His original building on this site was destroyed in the fire of 1913. This building was reconstructed from original bricks which may support this sign. the building has housed a number of retail establishments including a dry goods store and the Italian Consulate. In 1914 the Fernandez Mercantile company occupied the ground floor and the sign may date to their time. Faded out, as the best are, and partially painted over, it seems to advertise wholesale and retail groceries as well as produce and something obliterated by the electrical equipment. The building is currently empty.
