Vieux Carré Commission Evaluation:

[Purple. Junius Hart Music Store. 4-bay, 3-story brick commercial structure, before 1894. As early as 1939, when it housed Allen’s Shoe Store, the building was given a recessed entry with wide store windows on its ground floor, and its upper levels were completely covered over with marble or enamel tiles. At some point after 1979, however, the faux-façade tiling was removed and the original façade exposed to reveal shuttered openings on the upper levels and the geometric frieze which had already been visible on its Burgundy Street elevation. The ground floor was also returned to a semblance of its original, 19th-century look.] [N.B: Squares in the 100 block of the French Quarter (those that front Canal Street and back on Iberville Street) are not part of the original Vieux Carré and have never been evaluated by the Vieux Carré Commission. Rather, their historical status is the domain of another city agency, the Historic District Landmarks Commission (HDLC). The c. 1965, color-coded architectural evaluation square maps for these squares found in the VCS binders were most likely executed by architect Sam Wilson, but they are obviously not official, as the HDLC was not even in existence then. The official color ratings given here have been taken from the HDLC’s current maps.]
