History

Built in 1872 as Archer Mercantile on the ground floor and a saloon on the second, the building was altered in 1888 to include its present arched windows and renamed Rutherford Hall. It later housed a brothel and a Ford Motor dealership, with Model Ts stored on the second floor. In 1988, Herman Lee, architect, refurbished it for offices. The building features sandstone, a scored-stucco facade, and a semi-circular fanlight above the center door.
