This building is known as Red Hots House due to its canted corner entrance and a red color inspired by a turn of the century tenant, McDonald’s Red Hots. It has housed a variety of stores for 169 years, making it one of the oldest continuously open commercial buildings on the Gulf Coast. It was built in 1840 and is now a retail shop called Jerome’s Department Store.
