Abstract
Georgia Architectural and Historic Properties Survey of Home Materials, Inc., Roundtree House, 105 E. Screven, Quitman, Brooks County, Ga., 1981. Three story commercial building. Rectangular plan. Brick. Arcade along 2nd story over arched windows with 6/6 lights. A pair of doors lies in the center of this - they once led out onto a balcony. Original storefronts on street level. Alcove on each side of a wood and plate glass display area. Date of Construction: 1877-1878. The building was built by Roundtree after a school burned down on this land. It was built originally as a hotel; but instead it was used as a mercantile store. Significant architecturally as a fine example of 19th century commercial architecture. Significant as part of a potential National Register district, a downtown district of 19th century buildings on Screven St.
