center. The second floor features a bay window. The roof of the main porch is the floor of a second-story<br />

porch, accessed through a second-story door. The second-story porch has short rectangular porch piers<br />

connected by a wooden balustrade and topped with wooden ball ornaments. A 1996 survey shows the<br />

building without this second-story porch railing, so the current second-story railing is not original, but is<br />

compatible with the building’s architectural style. Windows are double-hung wooden sash with dividedlight<br />

upper and single-light lower panes. The building was constructed <strong>for</strong> Wright & Kimbrough. The<br />

building is a contributor to the district.<br />
