According to the downtown Scottsville, KY historic register:
ALS 45: Graves Block, 103 S. Court Street, 1935.This two-story, brick, L-shaped commercial building has a storefront on South Court and a garage/service entrance on Maple Street. The stepped parapet is capped with ceramic tile. The building retains the original recessed store front and the original transom. Horizontal and vertical bands of brick with limestone accents decorate the facade, resulting in a somewhat Art Deco appearance. This building was constructed by Dr. Lattie Graves and leased to Alonzo Henderson & Company, a dealer in hardware, paint, Crosley radios and refrigerators, Dodge and Plymouth automobiles, International Trucks and International Harvester tractors. In 1941 the firm of York and Massey, which dealt in a similar array of merchandise, took over the space. York and Massey, whose slogan was "We Sell Everything," remained in the building until about 1970.
