In 1873 J. H. Hall started a school furniture factory at this location. The following year, the new owner, F. T. June, built this building and named it Sherwood School Furniture. Two years later Coleman Hardware moved in. They made casters and hardware specialties, including door hangings, heating stoves, and cast-iron toys. The business closed in 1933 during the Great Depression.
