Warfield-Pratt-Howell Company: circa 1900

The building in August 2009
The Warfield-Pratt-Howell Co. Sign in June 2007

This century-old building on Court Avenue displays a high-top, readable faded advertisement for the former head company in this building, Warfield Pratt & Howell Company. There is also a barely readable rectangle-shaped advertisement right above the Buzzard Billy's Cafe sign. The exact date of commencement of the building is unknown. One of the founders, J.W. Howell, lived in a residence on Grand Avenue that was later demolished. The property is now Martin Luther King Jr. Pkwy.
