W-110-18 - Watts & Rogers Hardware-Implements-Lumber
The brick structure at the Northwest corner of Franklin and Main was built around 1874 by Isham Saling, and known as the Saling Building. It housed the Saling & Reese Store, and survived the fires of 1975 and 1883. By 1890, George Proebstel had established a hardware-farm implement-lumber store there, which was later bought out by Dr. FD Watts and EC Rogers; and then around 1920, purchased by the Jones Bros who offered the same goods and services.
The building survives today and is part of the Weston Historic District.
