More Information
Built in the mid-1880s the Ferrell Building features a fine pressed brick facade. The first floor was originally retail space for two separate storefronts. The first tenant was Jno. W. Ferrell & Company which was the largest furniture company in Danville at the time. Fortunately, the original pressed tin ceiling remained beneath a later dropped ceiling.

The building has three floors and a full basement. Second and third floor rooms have large windows and fireplaces.

The Revolving Fund Program purchased the building in 1999 and transfered ownership in 2006. The Ferrell Building is a contributing structure in the Downtown Danville Historic District which is listed on the Virginia Landmarks Register and the National Register of Historic Places. The building is under protective easement with the Virginia Department of Historic Resources. A complete restoration is underway.
