In 1889, construction began on an $18,000 brick building called the Getty Block. Over the years, it’s housed many important businesses and professionals including the White Bear Mercantile, the post office, the telephone exchange, a barber shop, a hardware store, the White Bear Electric Company, and White Bear Candy Company.

Today the the lower level of the Getty Building features popular retail businesses Cotroneo Wine & Spirits, Mixx Salon, and That Old Blue Door. The second floor has office suites occupied by a variety of business professionals. Renovations are underway to preserve and emphasize the history and character of the building while updating to current functionality and amenities.
