Summary[edit]

Description
English: Built in 1902, this former hemp and grain warehouse, later owned by the Hudson and Davis Company, and later utilized as the home of the Gibson Wholesale Grocery Company, stands at the corner of Walnut Street and Harding Street in Danville’s Warehouse District. The Classical Revival-style and utilitarian industrial warehouse features a red brick exterior, with the eastern and western facades of the three-story main wing divided into panels by pilasters and featuring brick corbeling below the roofline and few window openings, a rooftop skylight at the peak of the front-gable roof, a rear wing four floors tall with arched window openings and a front gable roof, a front facade with a decorative parapet topped with a classical cornice and featuring several window openings of varying sizes, with two notably tall window openings, including one that is arched, and a chamfered corner at the intersection of Walnut Street and Harding Street. A one-story accessory structure with a decorative front parapet, large window openings, and decorative Classical Revival trim elements stands immediately east of the warehouse, connected to it via a large canopy. The warehouse was purchased by Centre College in the late 20th Century, and the building was renovated and adaptively reused as The Combs Center, which served as Centre College’s Student Center from 1994 until 2009. The first floor of the building is utilized as an events center, with the upper levels utilized as administrative offices. The building is a contributing structure in the Danville Warehouse District Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.
