Mills Brothers Commercial Building
Built in 1904, this Neo-Classical Revival building was constructed for local grocers Albert and Elmer Mills. The wall ad around the corner for Gardner's "Purity Bread" with its butter yellow wrapper dates to the early 50s when the building was occupied by Star Grocery. Gardner's Bakery had its main bakery operation on East Washington Avenue. The mural was restored in 2003 by the Marquette Neighborhood Association with financial assistance from the City's Community Enhancement Program.
Marker is at the intersection of Williamson Street and South Ingersoll Street, on the right when traveling east on Williamson Street.
