Property Description
*SF est-CAD lacking specification* OWN A PIECE OF VICTORIAN TEXAS HISTORY-The Calvert Foundry & Manufacturing Co. The original L. T. Fuller Co. consisted of 4 buildings. Original cast iron front facade came from the famous Mesker & Brothers Co., of St. Louis. MO. One of only 5 original structures listed by the State Historical Association on Main Street of Calvert available for purchase. Fuller founded his company around 1870, one of Calvert's first industries. Iron ore from local deposits and from Cherokee County (100 mi. NE) was hauled here by horse-drawn wagons to be made into farm tools & other articles. The coal basement, accessible by stairs, where the train later dropped coal for the foundry's use. Original brick walls, bead board ceilings, and the1870's water cistern used in the foundry still holds water. Front doors are decorated Victorian cast hardware showcasing the quality in the original build. Tall ceilings and doors open wide onto the Main Street and keep the interior cool (prior to HVAC) & afford maximum wall space to be used. The 1870's long leaf Southern Pine wood floors remain with the exception of restoration needed over the last 100 years. Wonderful display windows remain. On the ceiling, evidence of the original oil ceiling lamp fixtures by cast iron hooks remain. Electrical wiring has been reworked for modern day use & safety. The structure is piped for natural gas heat & a standing stove remains with the building.
