East Allen Street building reveals century of local history
The 1920 Ford dealership at 100 block East Allen Street is being revealed brick by brick. The old yellow exterior was removed to expose red brick and upstairs showroom windows. Once James Motor Co and later Robotyper, the site later housed a hosiery mill and the Land Development Building after foreclosure.
