Excerpt on pages 27-28 about 100-102 South East Main Street:
This pair of identical one-story brick commercial buildings was constructed c. 1931 on the former site of the McCain Livery Company Stable which was destroyed in a 1931 fire. Central recessed entrances with double doors are flanked by plate glass display windows. The storefronts are surmounted by multi-pane transoms. Narrow corbeled bands define the spaces for business identification signs. The buildings are topped by corbeled cornices; partial pilasters with corbeled drip ends mark the ends of buildings and divide the two storefronts. Presently, the buildings house an antiques shop and an art gallery. (O, SM, SU, AH)(Submitted on July 10, 2023, by Devry Becker Jones of Washington, District of Columbia.)
