Historic Architecture Downtown Richmond:
A Walking Tour

John's Custom Framing
     S.S. Kresge Building,
     Jupiter Store
823-825 East Main Street

20th Century Functional

Originally, the S.S. Kresge Company built this commercial building to house its retail store. The store was an important feature of downtown and became a Jupiter Store after a new Kresge was built at 801 East Main Street. The interior retains the original wooden floors and interior design. Renovation work by Center City Development's Design Committee.
