106 S. Washington is currently occupied by Floor Mart Carpets. The original occupant here was Pioneer Theater, later the Isis Theater until approximately 1923. The entrance is a recessed, single wood and glass door with sidelights flanked by display windows. Above the entrance is a flat metal canopy, and a metal-covered clerestory. Above this is a ghost sign reading HARDWARE from when Stonebraker Hardware occupied the building in the 1920's. The ghost is very clear and easily readable.
As a side note, the building to the south at 108 S. Washington has a ghost above its storefront also, but we were not able to decipher it. We can see the words grocery and Drug. The building has had many occupants over the years.
