McKee's Shop existed only from January 1929 to January 1930. The building appears to have been built in 1928 by F. H. McKee, and opened in January 1929 as the McKee's Store, later McKee's Shop, selling clothing and furniture. One year later, the building was sold to Newberry's.
The Mrs. Lucius Evans Cottage occupied this space through at least 1903; by 1908, the buildings that would become Newberry's were added to bring the front out to the street line. It appears from the Sanborn Maps that the much of the original structure was still inside the buildings that accreted around it through at least 1924. There may still be some of the original structure at the core of the present building.
