118 E Main
1892 - A.H. Smith Block
Italianate style
This two-story brick, stone and terra cotta clad commercial block is notable for its intermixed fa9ade materials. The
building's first floor is raised well above the sidewalk level. The facade consists of a single wall plane without side
pilasters. A broad band of terracotta projecting pyramid shapes fills in the second floor front below the stone
window sills and connecting belt course. The facade brickwork is otherwise quite smooth, consisting of a stretcher
bond brick veneer.
The storefront is somewhat obstructed by a slip cover but enough of the cast iron storefront frame is visible to
indicate that it and the transom window areas survive intact. Two original or early main entry doors remain, one on
the left-hand side, accesses the upstairs.
