Description
editThe buildings, which are located at 4 West Main Street (Utah State Route 138), were constructed in c.1890 and c.1898, and were connected together in 1953.[1]
The building has significant historical associations with multiple periods of Grantsville's history, and "is architecturally significant for a unity of design (although the two buildings were constructed several years apart) and rich detail in the brickwork. The building is an excellent example of Victorian Eclectic ornamentation in a turn-of-the-century commercial block." It was built by contractor/mason James Jensen, a mason and contractor.[2]
