20. HISTORICAL AND ARCHITECTURAL IMPORTANCE:
Like the other buildings along Main St., the predecessor to this block
was destroyed in the !864 fire that extended from Union St. to the
PresbAeriar Church. Rebuilding of the damaged area began im,ediately.
Perhaps the earliest use of the site was by Scheneck"s Tavern c. 1810;
later the establishment changed to Bond.®s Hotel.
Farrel-I''essler has occupied the same storefront Q,9) since 1906. Previ-
ous to that, 2 sepeTate insurance companies occupied the space. The
1935 flood washed away the rear of the section and it has not been re-
placed although the interior has a door still leading to the non-existant
rear section, Present owners Cotillion: Doris McDorman, 19 E. Main St.

20. HISTORICAL AND ARCHITECTURAL IMPORTANCE:
The brick block is -a very fine local example of the commercial Italianate
style and features a lovely detailed patterned and corbelled cornice :,Tith
large brackets. Like the other commercial buildings of this side of
Main St. (south), after the 1871 fire, the oTmers chose to replace the
former frame structures 117ith ones of brick and commenced Tntork immeadiatel:
after the fire. A notable feature of the block are the cast iron fronts
manufactured at a local foundry, Gregg's Iron Works. The same iron
front appears at the nearby Camel's Restaurant.
According to Ales Brooks, operator of the Rongovian, the block ,aas con-
structued of brick from Horseheads, N.Y. by ex -Civil War soldiers.

A brief account of the ts,renti.eth century uses of the structure can be Tiven.
John Jehue operated a grocery prior to 1923.in-_theKosmos seetion. Phe.,Market
Basket" (a chain store from Geneva., N.Y.) bought out the shop_ in.tl9w3.
At this time, Potter's Restaurant was located in the middle section of t:ie
present block (the Rongovi.a.n's second shop space). The main section of
u-'(1e, i'IUngovian (ease) was also a grocery, the National Economy. In 1Q29,
the "P'iarket Basket" bought out this enterprise and moved into the space.
This freed the forner space of the Mar'ret Basket shop for the e-rpansion of
Potter's Restaurant (into the presnt Kosr_os section) In its new location,
the Market Basket shop underwent interior and e-xterio r alterations in 1929,
Prior to the construction of the new fire station in 1925, the Gregg Hose
Compan:,= occupied the upper stories of the middle section of the block. The
second and t'Zird stories of the flanking sections of the block were usdd
as a-oartments.
During the -t9401s, the Red and White grocery store was located in the
middle section of the block and Pot -leis Restaurant was replaced by
Durl ing' s Restaurant.
The hiar?�.-et Bas ket main confined operations until 195" T�rhen the Acme
Supermarket chain purchased the business. The store closed in 1958.
Afterwards, the store stood vacant, served as Charlie's Gift Store and
early in the 1970's become the Rongovian Embassy.
Like other sections of Main Street, the area infront of the block has been
filled in inorder to eliminate some of the depressions of the street.
The block has cellar windows that are blocked by the present raised level
