"A new row of storefronts was
constructed to the east of the First United Methodist Church in 1912, further extending the downtown
commercial district in that direction. The buildings at 302-314 Newnan Street housed a wide variety
of businesses in the 20th century, from groceries to auto supply stores to music stores. The current
J. Carl Cleaners, at 314 Newnan Street, has been the site of a dry cleaner since the late 1920s." ~ NRHP Nomination Form, page 21
"Commercial buildings were also constructed on the
north side of Newnan Street, which served multiple purposes
throughout the twentieth century.
" ... Construction during the 1910s and 1920s
tended to be along Newnan and Alabama Streets. ..." ~ Historic Resources Survey of Carrollton
