The small white building to the left of Hailey�s was the original Hartwell Post Office. The Post Office moved to the opposite side of the square when the current building was constructed in the 1930s. The original Hailey�s building was constructed around 1920 from yellow brick, in a Neoclassical Minimalist style. It contained Hailey�s Drug Store, owned by brothers Isham & Henry, and a barber shop. The drug store�s soda fountain was a popular hangout. During WWII, the building served as the Greyhound Bus Stop and bore witness to the departure and return of many of the area�s servicemen. Local women made cookies and sandwiches to sell to departing soldiers. The original building burned in 2001 and the new Hailey Building is an excellent example of new construction restoring a site to its original appearance. The building serves as offices.
