Well I went through all 82 pages of the pdf. Only the Carolina Theatre was mentioned. There was a street renumbering in 1951, but the Carolina is using the new number. I’m gonna leave this news piece here, in case anyone want to research further. The jewelry store that shared the Catawba Theatre building at one time, which is mentioned.

You are probably correct. Looks like the time frame Hickory was growing. The first link is an 82 page pdf I’ll have to search through later.

Those buildings look like they’re from the late 1800s, or very early 1900s. Maybe the ‘20s would be when they were stuccoed?
