In 1892 Sarah Jones purchased these lots, and her husband, L.G. Jones, built this two-story structure. At various times it housed Benn & Jones bar, Miller & Legace drugs & novelties, Mrs. Doyle's dry goods, groceries & notions, a feed store, and a meat market. The upper floor contained lodge and hotel rooms. Tony Simoni moved from Madrid to Cerrillos in 1914, and in 1919 he bought the building from E.W. Callender for $3,000. Tony ran the grocery and August Probst the meat market. After Tony' death in 1956, Edith & Corina Simoni ran the building until their passing. In 2014 it came to be owned by Russel Saimons.
