This partial inventory of historic structures includes a profile for Hendel's Market on page 2:

Hendel's Market, 599 St. Denis, 1873. This Federal style grocery with front portico assumed its present character in 1888 when it was enlarged to its present size. It holds a prominent position in the district due to its proximity to the Sacred Heart complex... to southwest and the Archambault House... immediately to the southeast. Two small non-contributing sheds are located to the rear of the lot.
