Main Street Excitement # 3 – The News Stand and Weaver Building Architect
The Town of Front Royal, VA is excited to showcase what is going on in our Town. The following are sneak peeks at some of what is going on.
The Weaver building was built in the early 1900’s by a famous architect from New York City, John Sloan. The Barnharts are planning to expose more of the architect stamp on the side of the building as they renovate.
Drum roll please… Kerry opens the door to the news stand after all this time! Take a peek inside! Keep watching for the next Main Street Excitement sneak peek. 120-124 E Main Street will be explained in more detail and plans will be shared.
