![]() One of the classic buildings in a southern Arizona city known for classic buildings is on the market for just under $1 million. The three-story brick Palace Livery building is located at 69 Main Street, on a throughfare dominated by buildings dating to the 19th century. Built in 1909, the structure originally served as horse boarding stable that also sold horses, as well as carriages and funeral hearses. An ad in 1909 for the business in the Bisbee Daily Review promoted a line of “stylish, up-to-date” rigs and “spick and span horses which can make good time.” The 10,000 square foot structure, which in recent decades has been used for retail purposes, still features a massive horse elevator left over from its days as a livery. Built with a neoclassical design, the building also features a tripart façade framed by brick pilasters on stone footers, and three bays of windows. Additional elements include a cornice with fan molding, plaster medallions, and arched windows on the third floor. Like most structures in the defined Bisbee Historical District, the structure has been preserved intact and is currently the home to an antique and art store called Acacia Collectibles. Listed with the commercial realtor Zoned Properties, Incorporated, which is based in Scottsdale, the structure is categorized as a Class C building. By Garry Boulard
