History and architectural features

Built by Congressman William Everhart (1785-1868) circa 1833, the historic commercial building is a three-story, three-bay, rectangular brick structure that was designed in the Federal style. It measures forty feet long and between twenty and twenty-five feet wide. The front facade features a hipped roof, second-story, wrought iron porch that was added in 1868. The building housed a number of printing concerns, most notably newspapers. It was the printing house where Abraham Lincoln's first biography was published on February 11, 1860, as an article in the Chester County Times.
