Statement of Significance This building was historically significant, relative to National Register Criterion A, for its association with commercial development in Louisville during its period of significance. The building was also architecturally notable, under National Register Criterion C, as a representative wood frame front gabled commercial building. Due to a substantial loss of integrity, though, the building is ineligible for individual listing in the National Register of Historic Places. It would also be considered a non-contributing resource within a potential downtown Louisville historic district. 43. Assessment of historic physical integrity related to significance: This building's historical integrity has been severely impacted by additions to the north and east elevations, which have more than doubled the size of the original building, and by the addition of a false -front parapet wall.
