Nunnery Building

 

New Turner Block Building

C05-11-03, 109, East Main Street, New Turner Block, TAC-12, 1911 (alterations 1998), 2008-2009
See TAC-ll for description.

 

Additions to the facade include opaque glass and black tile. The recessed entry floor is covered with red tile. A leaded glass transom is situated over the east door. A pressed tin ceiling is found in the interior.

 

This building was occupied by Buchanan-Lyon from the 1910s to the 1930s. They sold hardware, buggies, wagons, and took the first Ford agency in Campbellsville. Lerman Brothers opened their store the late-1930s.

 

Although not distinctive architecturally, the building represents an early-20th century front facade which remains sympathetic in design and scale to Main Street.
