The corner building was originally the Atkins National Bank. Cari Morningstar writes: I believe the red brick, two-story building, adjacent to the bank building, was originally a hospital. Later, Aaron and Mozelle (Wilson) Hill operated a grocery store in the ground floor space. They lived in the space over the grocery store.

Between the two residential historic districts on Main Street are a couple of blocks of commercial buildings which served Marshallville at the height of the peach boom. Most are empty today, I believe. Just don’t consider that a reason not to stop. It’s a good place to park and take a quick sidewalk tour of the great residential architecture, down the street in either direction.
