606 Main Street is a historic commercial building located in Barnstable, Massachusetts.

Description and history

[edit]

Built in about 1910, it is a modest, single-story, wood-framed construction with a gable roof. The front slope of the roof has a long shed-roof dormer, providing some second-level storage space for the shops below. The building is vernacular in style, with paired recessed doorways to the stores. The building typifies Barnstable's modestly-scaled commercial district, fitting well with earlier residential structures.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on March 13, 1987.[1]
