"38. 518 Court Street, c. 1890. Though the storefront and second story windows were modified
in the late 1970s, the late Victorian style of this building can still be seen in the pressed
metal cornice and facade. The second story fenestration (now filled in with wood siding
and two small windows) are separated by classical columns. A pressed metal cornice line
extends over a section of pressed metal in a brick pattern. The storefront has been bricked
in (1977) with only small windows and modern entrance doors. A corrugated metal canopy
extends over the storefront and wraps around the corner of the building. [NC]

store. By 1919, a one -story addition had been added at the rear of the building." ~ NRHP Nomination Form
