10 North Warren St (Commercial Building), 10 North Warren St Trenton, Mercer County, NJ
A restrained example of late 19th century commercial architecture with original details reflecting the influence of the Victorian Gothic style, and subsequent storefront alterations in the popular early 20th century Classical Revival style. The interior retains some interesting elements of late 19th century technology, including gas jets and a freight elevator with exposed hoist mechanism. Although the first tenant was a harness and saddlery shop, for much of the building`s history it contained a drug store. Stuckert`s Drug Store moved into the building in 1916, and by 1964 it was the oldest retail drug business in Trenton. In that year, the Stuckert family sold the building and the business, but the Rexall drug store chain continued operations here for another decade.
