This building was built in 1946 by Mr. Witcher who managed a furniture store here until the building was sold to Derwood Smith. Later is was acquired by the Lebanon Elks. It was home of the City of Lebanon Senior Center since the mid-1970s until the new Senior Center opened at Academy Square in 2005.

At some point, the second-floor windows were replaced with windows much smaller than the originals. In late 2006, these small windows were replaced with larger windows that more closely match the buildings original windows and greatly improved its appearance.
