History
2
Albany’s first stone mercantile store was erected in stages, combining Greek Revival and Victorian Italianate designs. In 1878, W.H. Miller built the one-story east unit and permitted Albany Masonic Lodge to erect a second story. Local rancher J.C. Lynch built the two-story west unit in 1881. The “Live and Let Live” drugstore was an early tenant. L.H. Hill and family owned the property from 1896 to 1974, and Clifton Caldwell bought and restored it in 1974-75.
