Sapp Antinques Building

C09-18-16-17, 116-120 East Main Street, Commercial Building, TAC-43, 1876-1900 (Alterations 1923; 1960s)

This building repeats the facade of TAC-42 with a cast iron front, altered storefront windows and an added shingled roof.

In January 1884, Samuel R Bass and J. B. Buchanan purchased all of Campbellsville town lot #19 on which this building sits. The deed transfers all of the brick buildings on this lot and it appears that this was one of the buildings.

Fire Insurance Sanborn maps show a drug store in the building in 1886, a meat house in 1895, a Harness Shop and cigar factory (2nd floor) in 1901, an undertaker in 1908, Rosenham Grocery, Monson's Department Store (1934-1949), Caulk (Deener) Furniture Stephens Furniture, and Ann's Dance.

This building continues the design and scale of the other late-19th century buildings, in this block of Campbellsville's Main Street.
