"430 Main Street (Contributing)
The building at 430 Main Street is a two-story, two-part brick commercial building with a flat
roof and a concrete (possibly over limestone) foundation constructed c. 1875. The building
shares a wall with the commercial building immediately north at 400 Main Street and is
commonly known as the Old Drug Store. The building has a single-door commercial entrance
offset at the south by a three-panel commercial window (c. 1945) with aluminum framing. An
awning above the entry and window projects above the sidewalk leading to the building and
obscures a band of glass blocks that extend above the commercial windows and entrance. A
staircase/entry at the north end of the façade leads to the upper level. The entrances to both the
commercial (south) and upper level (north) spaces are slightly recessed. The upper façade holds
four double-hung windows with arched brick headers capping the lights. The windows have
limestone sills. The upper wall has brick teardrop shaped corbelling. Terra cotta caps the false
wall that rises above the roofline." ~ NRHP Nomination From
