Beneath the stucco lies the brick veneer facade of Charles S. Smith’s office and business block. Designed by Bugenhagen and Turnbull, architects of the Farnam Block, the building was completed in 1912. The central doorway was framed in patterned brick pilasters and surmounted by a triangular pediment. The building has seen many interesting tenants, including a branch of Early’s Seed and Feed Company (1914-1917), the Free Methodist Mission (1912–1928) and a branch of the Public Library (1941–1962). The library bought the building in 1947 and James Stewart Wood, chief librarian, lived in an upstairs suite from 1947 until his death in 1961.
