Hessinger Store was a historic general store located at Callicoon Center in Sullivan County, New York. It was built in 1840 and demolished in April 2011. [2]

History

The building was a general store, but also functioned as a post office, dance hall, and hotel / rooming house. It was a large wood-frame building constructed in four phases over a 20 to 50-year period starting about 1840. It was built of heavy timber, post and beam construction and built into a hillside on a stone foundation. The largest section was the 2+1⁄2-story center section. The second floor of the south wing originally served as a Masonic hall and features a barrel vaulted ceiling. [3]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2000. [1]

After the Hessingers sold the building, it went through a succession of at least three owners, who failed to keep the building in good repair. [2] Eventually the building became dilapidated and rodent-infested. [2]

In December 2010, the town of Callicoon decided to demolish the building. [4] After a brief court battle the dilapidated building was demolished in April 2011. [2]
