History
Known as the Rosenberger Building, this is the oldest store building in Colfax, Indiana. It is also is the sole remaining remaining structure in the old Town of Midway, named so as it was midway between Cincinnati and Chicago. The brick structure is called the Rosenberger Building because most people remember it as a general store owned by Joseph Rosenberger who operated a huckster wagon from it peddling a variety of wares.
Rosenberger, however, was not the first owner of the property. The Blacker family originally owned the building and ran a funeral home out of it. Over the years, it has also been a furniture store, antique store and most recently a private residence.
