Bush-Morgan Cherry Building

Constructed in 1891, this building has been associated throughout its history with prominent Granbury citizens and successful businesses. From 1891 until 1894, it served as the dry goods store of F.C. Bush, who was the city tax collector and secretary in 1892. In 1895 the building housed the Morgan Drug Store, run by Eugene H. Morgan, who later became a prominent local physician. For the next 72 years, the building was associated with other drugstores, including that of William H. Cherry, who served as mayor of Granbury and as a director of The First National Bank.
