G. Tillotson Block, 153-169 South Main Street


Local builders McNulty and Murphy constructed this 21 bay block for local businessman Levi Tillotson in 1881. Modernization has significantly altered the exterior appearance of the block. For example, of the three original architectural towers only the northern-most remains. In 1881, original tenants included, among others, J.A. Meg’s Gent’s Furnishings Store and Mrs. Shay’s Fancy Goods & Millinery.
