My Commentary:
Building is in good shape. It is currently occupied by the Cardinal Scale Company. I only found the reference that this was a former fire station in the National Register Application. I found no reference as to when it was used.
Building Details:
110-112 North Tom Street
ca. 1914
[c]
This two-story brick building was originally constructed to house a furniture warehouse. The building has an irregular footprint and is connected on the southwest upper level to 109 N. Main Street. The façade has a remodeled storefront but retains its original size openings. The first level façade has two storefronts separated by a brick pilaster. A garage bay with a multi-light window over a paneled bulkhead is located on the southern section; the north section has an off centered multi-light paneled door flanked by multilight windows over a paneled bulkhead. A wide wood blank signboard trimmed in blue separates the first and second level. The upper level has original or early period six-over-six double-hung windows with concrete lintels and sills. A brick stringcourse delineates the second level and the cornice. The cornice line features a decorative brick corbeling with instepped double brackets with a small instepped brackets between. Centered in the cornice line is a star-shaped faux beam anchor flanked by decorative red cardinals. The south elevation has six-over-six double-hung windows with concrete sills and brick segmental arches. Between each window is the same star-shaped faux beam anchor as the façade and these star-shaped anchors are also located between the second level and the roofline. The north elevation also features the same star-shaped faux beam anchors and is connected to the building located at 114 E. Daugherty Street.
