History

The building was completed c. 1910. It housed Davidson Bros, a wholesale and poultry firm, from 1916 to 1926. It was acquired by James Luther Turner and his son, Cal Turner, the co-founders of J. L. Turner & Son, in 1939.

By 1956, their business was named Dollar General; it later became a corporation traded on the New York Stock Exchange.

It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since November 21, 2001. It now houses Community Action of Southern Kentucky.
