Description
-
Photograph of the Mabry Hall building at 4112-14 Pennsylvania Avenue, circa 1980. At the time of the photo, the building was owned by Ace Dickinson, who operated Ace's Rock Shop and Museum on the ground floor. The building is arguably the oldest extant commercial building in Kansas City, with some claiming it was constructed in 1843. Other sources suggest a date closer to 1850.
