It was constructed in 1894. Citizens Bank moved out in 1900, and a series of businesses have occupied the space to the present. These have included a harness and bridle shop (which later sold automobile tops), a barber shop with Stillwater's first beauty shop, a cafe, a justice of the peace who at various times ran a pawn shop, real estate office, insurance business, a feed store, bakery, clothing store and saloon. From 1936 to 1978 the building served as a shoe repair shop.[1][2]
