The main building dates to about 1850-1852 and was built for an agricultural implements works.","why_significant":"The nomination argues it is a largely intact, rare survivor of the brownstone industrial buildings that once lined the Erie Canal in Brockport. It is also the only surviving set of buildings built and used for Brockport's reaper and farm equipment industry. Later uses as a lumberyard and canning plant reflect changes in the town's canal-era economy.","narrative":"Two buildings on Clinton Street in Brockport, beside the Erie Canal, make up this former agricultural works. The main building has three two-story sections, with the western two built of random-sized fieldstone, probably local, with cut stone quoins. The eastern section is wood framed. A smaller stone building to the west has a later mansard roof and is now residential. Built between 1850 and 1852 on a site once used by Hiel Brockway for a brickyard and boatyard, the complex housed the farm equipment firm later known as Whiteside, Barnett and Co., whose products included grain drills and wheel rakes. After the industry declined in the 1880s, the site served as a lumberyard, then as a canning plant until 1945, and as a service garage from 1948. The complex is described as the last local canal-front industrial building of its type and the only surviving structure built for Brockport's reaper industry.","period_of_significance":"ca 1850-1945","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Other: vernacular stone commercial warehouse","criteria":["A"],"status_note":"Condition described as stable through deteriorated; the main building has been used as a service garage since 1948 and the smaller western building has been converted to residential use.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:51:50.189572-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/00001157.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/00001157/3903b9c03d-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/00001157/3903b9c03d-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"LtPowers","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Brockport_-_Whiteside_Barnett_and_Co_-_street_view.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">LtPowers</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Brockport_-_Whiteside_Barnett_and_Co_-_street_view.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75318975","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whiteside,_Barnett_and_Co._Agricultural_Works","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q7996249"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/monroe-county/whiteside-barnett-and-co-agricultural-works-00001157/"}
