It was built in 1920 by builder L. Shaffer and faces west onto Guadalupe Street.","why_significant":"The building is the most intact example in a cluster of storefronts along Hyde Park's main commercial street. It has been in continuous commercial use since 1920, and it reflects the neighborhood's character as a largely self-sufficient suburban community. It was nominated for local architectural significance under Criterion C.","narrative":"Located on Guadalupe Street, the main commercial thoroughfare of Austin's Hyde Park neighborhood, this small one-story storefront was built in 1920. Owners R.B. and Ella McMichael contracted with builder L. Shaffer to erect a box store building for $1,050. The frame structure has a symmetrical three-bay facade topped by a stepped parapet that hides a metal-clad gable roof. Its entrance sits in the same plane as the flanking display windows, rather than being recessed as on many similar stores. The red brick veneer on the west facade is thought to date to the 1930s. Over the decades, businesses such as shoe shops and beauty shops have served the neighborhood from this storefront. It was built at the start of Hyde Park's greatest building boom and is considered the most intact of a cluster of storefronts along the street. Its continuous commercial use reflects the neighborhood's self-sufficient character, and it was recognized for local architectural significance.","period_of_significance":"1920","architect_builder":"Shaffer, L.
