In the 1850s John A. Grossnickel bought this double lot and built the brick house. He built a shop on this property to house his mechanic and wheelwright business. The first wagon he built was for John Ecker in 1856. His son, Oscar carried on his father’s business until his death in 1948. Oscar’s daughter, Miss Mary Grossnickel lived in the house until her death in 1989.
