Little Red Shop - Two Floors

This is the closest view I've seen of what appears to be The Little Red Shop with

two floors. Given what we have from the writings of

, the caption with

the picture in Five Generations of Loom Builders, and this photo, it seems that

the Red Shop must have been originally less than half as long and about twice

as high as it is now. . All pictures we have seen of it on the south side of

Freedom Street seem to show it with two floors and all photos on the other side

of the street show one. The elimination of the bottom floor probably came about

with the move to the Lake Street site in 1903. Also, that's when the cupola

appeared.
