My Commentary:
This building is now a gift shop.

Constructed c. 1925, probably at the same time as Dalrimple Store through Creswell Office Building. The narrow two bay facade is divided by brick piers, with recessed panels above the storefront of widths identical to the single-door entrance and display window to the left. Projecting shed awnings above the entrance and window are additions.

1925. The shop originally operated by Hubert Garner, then by Hale Garner.

Built ca. 1925 and was originally 3 storefronts. Northernmost one housed the City Barber Shop, first run by Hubert Garner, and later by Hale Garner. You could pay to take a shower there. It was later Lorene Miller’s Beauty Shop.
