Freeman Building

Originally built in 1875, as a mansard-roofed commercial building, this structure housed stores, a saloon, and on its third and fourth floors, an “opera house” for stage productions. After a fire ten years later, the fourth floor was eliminated. Around the turn of the century, it became the editorial and printing offices of the KINGSTON DAILY FREEMAN, a use it fulfilled until 1974.
