A livery first stood on this site in 1863. In 1905, John Wagner, proprietor of Chelsea House Hotel, replaced the wooden livery with a molded cement block structure that housed both horses and carriages. B.J. Conlan purchased the livery six years later, and over time it was used as a warehouse for onions and wool. Palmer Motor Sales stored automobiles in the livery during World War II. Longworth Plating operated its business there from 1946 to 2002. The City of Chelsea bought the Longworth Property in 2008 and eventually demolished the livery in 2014 to make way for a parking lot. In 2022, the area was designated as the Livery Lot by the Chelsea Area Historical Society and the City.
