Sherman D. Phelps, whose home was located across Warren Street (No. 33), built this three-story brick commercial structure, which he sold in 1849 to Isaac Ross. Most often used as a hardware store, the building has also been home to a harness and trunk factory and a dress and bonnet shop. Known alternately through the years as O.S. Mills & Co. Hardware, Mills & Billings, Billings & Sons and George Hardware Store, the building has also been used as a grocery outlet, clothing store, youth center, coffee house, and fine dining restaurant.
