Historic Downtown Salem #25: Anderson Building

201-211 Commercial Street NE

Anderson Building on September 4, 2006.

When built in 1867, the Starkey-McCully Block to the north extended to this corner. William R. Anderson was the owner of the property at the time. This may be the same structure, having been renovated with a new facade around the turn of the century, or it may be an entirely new building constructed at that time. Max H. & Martha Schnuelle Gehlar purchased the building in 1958 and it passed to their children, Mark and Mack G. Gehlar, in the 1960s. Today it is home to Nopp's Jewelry & Art and an antique store.
