A Greek Revival building built in the mid-19th century and was home to a bank. During the Civil War, Federal troops commandeered the building, which they used as Commissary Headquarters for the Union Army. After the Battle of Bull Run/First Manassas, the building served as a triage facility for wounded Union soldiers.
