Overview

According to the Historic American Building Survey, the one-story, flat-roofed Diller-Chamberlain Store occupied a central place in the city's history, being "...the social and civic center of the town." The store was of load-bearing brick construction, with a front facade consisting of three bays, each demarcated by pilasters with plain capitals. A simple brick cornice stood just below the parapet. In the 1960-1970s period, the south bay was the doorway, while the middle and north bays were lit by fixed, plate glass windows. A fanlight lit the middle bay. In more recent years, the facade was altered, with the light paint sandblasted from the brick, and fanlit French doors installed in all three bays. In the 1960s-1970s, a wood sign obscured a shallowly pitched pediment that stood above the central bay at the parapet line.
