Historic Site...
The interior of our building, built in
1899 as a very typical mercantile building with mezzanine, has been lovingly
restored to a period reminiscent of the 1900-1910 period. From the tin ceiling
tiles, the brickwork and the vintage 1906 display cabinets, numerous efforts
have been made to make your visit a delight.

In recognition of our efforts, the City of Portsmouth
designated our building as an historic site in late 2002, and our plans are to
restore the exterior of the building in the near future. In the
past, this building has been the home to Stapleton Office Supplies, Ehrman
& Co. Household Appliances, Sears Roebuck & Co., and the Portsmouth Dry
Goods Company.
