Eastville Prior to Fire of 1928

This picture was taken looking north with the Eastville Inn on your immediate left. The next building is the barber shop, and then the drygoods store was Lipsits (they were tennents in the Richard V Nottingham store building, now Dunnan Law Firm). On the right side of the street is the Eastville Mercantile building that most living today know as the Eastville Drug Store. Chamber of Commerce is in the downstairs and Seaside Title and Settlement is upstairs now. The very large brick building next door is the Eastville Bank and Ailworths Drug Store.
