This 20th century commercial building was constructed in 1918 by Nick Waters and Oscar Abrams as a two-story furniture and casket store, became McWhorter Hardware in 1921, later served as a John Deere dealership, and then housed the General Electric Store opened by Bryson and Grisham. Tom Hassell purchased the GE store and added the one-story addition in the 1980's. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
