Weston & Brooker Stone Quarry House

In the early 1920s, Beacham O. Brooker commissioned the talented architectural firm of Lafaye and Lafaye to design his family’s new suburban residence. As co-owner of the Weston & Brooker Quarry in nearby Cayce, he had easy access to the ample stone required for the Tudor style cottage’s construction. In the 1950s, the property changed hands when Julia D. Brooker sold it to the Haltiwanger family, whose name remains associated with of one of Main Street’s most popular 20th-century department stores.
