    The Novelty Bakery fire destroys an earlier building on the 246 Front Street lot in 1853

    An earlier building stood on this lot, put up together with the neighboring buildings at 248 and 250 Front Street. The Novelty Bakery fire of 1853 destroyed it. That blaze started in a rear building on the site of 248 Front Street and also took the older buildings there, which were replaced shortly afterward. The landmark designation report records this lot as empty.
