History

This was originally the Jacob Frank Carriage Shop. The front of the structure had an entrance that was wide enough to allow carriages to pass out.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.[1] It is also identified as #103 in the "National Register of Historic Places Resource Inventory: Newport Historic District" (PDF).[2]
