Summary[edit]

Description
English: This is a 1967 reconstruction of the old Benet Store, which was built by Peter Benet in 1840 to house his retail business. Prior to building the store, his shop was in the first floor of the Benet House across the street. After Peter Benet died in 1870, his son Joseph Ravina Benet continued to run the store out of the building from 1871 until 1883. In 1887, the Benet family sold the store, which was demolished by a subsequent owner in 1903 to make way for a larger commercial structure. In 1967, the replacement building was demolished to allow for the previous building to be rebuilt. The store was reconstructed as part of an effort to restore the colonial appearance of the city by the Historic St. Augustine Preservation Board, which reconstructed several other houses and structures from the colonial period during the 1960s and 1970s.
