At the 900 block of Princess Anne Street. Known as the Bradford Building, it was built in 1902 and at various times housed a law office, Planters National Bank, a gymnasium and a restaurant. The Mayflower Restaurant on the bottom floor was the cause of the building's demise in 1963 when a coffee urn left on overnight started a fire. A rose garden now occupies the site (below) next to the Fredericksburg Area Museum.
