Description
Hall's Block, Dahlonega, GA.
Hall's Block, 1883, also "Moore's Store", was constructed of solid brick, by Frank W Hall, a native of Vermont, came to Dahlonega after the Civil War. It was built in the Victorian Italianate style. He engaged in a variety of successful ventures, and came to be regarded as the richest man in the county.
John H. Moore purchased Hall's Block and the adjoining properties from Hall's widow in 1919. Thus began a long history of use as Moore's Store, the more familiar name to many local residents.
