15 (formerly 11-15) Main Street, Hyde Building, c. 1870.

Brick, three stories, flat roof. This nine-bay Italianate style building is articulated in three identical sections. There is an arcaded corbelled cornice. The windows have granite sills, twoover-two light sash, and are segmentally arched with corbelled heads containing granite keystones. On the second floor level the granite window sills are connected in a continuous course above a corbelled brick frieze of dentils. The store front level, under the dentil frieze has been altered; originally it was arcaded with nine round- headed arches with granite keystones and imposts. The arches are extant but the openings are presently bricked in with three square topped store fronts each spanning three arches. There are brick piers between storefronts adorned by granite capstones. The building is articulated on both the Main Street facade and the right side which faces Barre Street. On the Barre Street facade, there is a doorway under an original stone gable surround with a molded, bracketed hood peaked in the center resting on columns and another storefront on the eastern end. It is possible that this building was designed by Montpelier architect, George H. Guernsey (See # 16 - 26 Terrace Street, # 140 - 71-77 Main Street & # 480 - 128 State Street).
