Encompassing the addresses of 9 to 27 Broad Street and first known as "Kinyon’s Block", the building was constructed in 1888 by Myron T. Kinyon as an investment property and to house his insurance office. Kinyon’s Commercial School, founded by Myron’s son W. Hervey Kinyon to teach business skills, and the W.H. McDevitt clothing store were other historic occupants of the building, later re-named as the “McDevitt’s Block", and subsequently the "McDevitt Building". The building was remodeled in 1923 and again in the mid-late 20th century. With exposed brick and plenty of historical character, as well as its proximity to amenities and transportation options, the building lends itself to a mixed-use/residential adaptive reuse or redevelopment.
