Feature 167: 109-111-113 East Lexington Avenue (in 2011)

Commercial style building

Classification: Noncontributing. Historic Name: None found. Architectural Style: Commercial. Construction Date: ca. 1902. Period 6 of Harry S Truman's Life: The Period of Post-Significance, 1972-2011. Tax Identification: 26-230-15-01-02 and 26-230-15-01-01. Legal Description: Old Town, lot 60. Description: Noncontributing two-story brick commercial building; flat roof sloping gently to rear, behind corbelled parapet; large display windows (first floor) and double-hung sash windows (second floor) facing East Lexington Avenue. The building is located one-half block from the Courthouse on south side of Lexington; sidewalk extends along facade; paved parking lot to the east. • Alterations: Display windows altered; shutters installed and later removed from second-story windows; some decorative details on parapet removed. In 2001, two-thirds of this building facade (specifically the storefronts at 111 and 113 East Lexington) was altered by the addition of small windows and doors, and brick infill installed in the remaining storefront. The building is deemed to be noncontributing because these alterations have resulted in a loss of historic integrity. History/Significance: The commercial space at 109 East Lexington was owned by Robert L. Duncan in 1932 and used as a restaurant. In 1952, it housed the Jones and Herald Office Equipment Company, and in 1972, Temple Acceptance. The commercial space at 111 East Lexington was vacant in 1932, and housed real estate offices in 1952. Carolyn's Antiques was located in this space in 1972. Mickie's Cafe operated at 113 East Lexington in 1972.
