It is a one-story Folk Victorian commercial building built out of brick about 1890. A brick sidewalk with a herringbone pattern was built in the early 1900s. The inside is one large room with a raised office space. The store was originally a drug store and general merchandise store. Ewell Brown bought the store in 1899 and along with his brother, Bob, operated it was a general merchandise store. Bob took over the store in 1948 and it closed in 1953 or 1954, due to the realignment of US 41, which caused a decline in trade. Then it was used for storage except that it was rented for an antique store from 1974-1976. In 1994 the daughter of Bob Brown donated it to the Lake Park Historical Society to use as a museum.[1] It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 21, 1997. The building now houses the Lake Park Museum, which includes collections of family histories and artifacts.[2] According to its NRHP nomination, the store in 1892 was a drug store and general merchandise store that was operated by a Dr. E. Taylor, and Ewell Brown was an employee: a pill roller and assistant operator. The name of the store was changed when Brown purchased it in 1899 to "Ewell Brown, Lender in Dry Goods, Clothing, Groceries and General Merchandise".[3] See also{{portal|Georgia (U.S. state)}}
