C.T. Huffman Grocery

Industry

Built circa 1887, this one-story commercial building was originally shared by Lutey's Grocery and the Barrett and Jacky Harness Shop. By the 1890s, Valentine Jacky shared the building with C. T. Huffman, who supplied groceries to Philipsburg and the nearby town of Granite. C. T. and A. S. Huffman eventually expanded their store into both sides of the building. Operated by A. S. Huffman's sons until the 1970s, the business became the state's oldest family-owned grocery. Meticulous reconstruction of the 1890s facade and restoration of the tin-ceilinged interior were completed in 1992-1993 by owner Dale Siegford and woodwright Barry Carnahan.
