34. Clark Pine Store

4 W. Franklin St.

A log cabin first stood on this site in 1816. It was used as a cooperage in the 1820s and 30s making barrels for the pork packing business. The present two-story Victorian building (the Franklin Street portion) was built by Clark Pine in 1872 and incorporates at least two earlier buildings into a unified structure. The foundation and sill plates of the log cabin can be seen on the southeast corner of this building. The two-story section and porch on the west side were added in 1895. This building also served as the Centerville Post Office in the 1880s.
