Inscription. In 1893, this two-story building served as a general merchandise establishment. Daniel Barry operated his business here until 1897. Cohn, Doll & Co (later Doll Bros. and Smith) operated a dry goods and general merchandise store here, followed by the Rocky Mountain Stores Co. from 1908-1915. Albert Nelson and Joe Brunetti later operated a garage and filling station in the building through the 1940s.
