 905 Main St.
restored
Historic name: The Smart Shop
Current name: Holy Cross Chapel
Completed: 1928
Architect: Alfred C. Finn
GHPA Good Brick Award, 2004
The building’s façade was "updated" in 1965 with plain panels similar to those used on the adjacent Krupp & Tuffly shoe store. The façade was reconstructed in 2003-04 using Finn’s original blueprints as a guide.
