History

Parmelee Building was built in 1907 and when the Broadway Theater and Commercial District was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979, Parmelee Building was listed as a contributing property in the district.[1] The building is primarily an office and retail structure.[2]

The building was restored in 2017, and plans to convert it to residential were abandoned that same year.[3]

Architecture and design

Parmelee Building is made of concrete. As of 1979, its facade was stuccoed over and many of its features, including cornice, were removed.[1]
