This history of the building dates back to almost the establishment of Newton Falls itself. It is one of the structures on Broad Street that has stood the test of time, even the tornado that went through the town in 1985, causing massive destruction to buildings just a few doors down. This is a two-story building with the entry-level floor housing the Fieldview Acres Mercantile, a store that specializes in hard-to-find antiques and collectibles, as well as other items that you may find of interest. Inventory at the store is constantly rotating, as Tom (the owner) is actively looking for new finds and inventory for the store.

We don't currently know the names of all the establishments that previously occupied this facility. Documentation confirms that this building housed the first bank for Newton Falls. Even the remnants found in the store and on the building attest to this. The original bank vault is still in the building. In the basement, the owners still have the iron bars that would have been on the teller's windows. Additionally, this building was home to the Davis Insurance Agency for a significant period in local history.

Property records date the construction of this building around 1900; however, it is believed that the original structure was built a little before then, predating current property records. Several historic photos of the Newton Falls downtown area show this building in existence.

The story of a building that has endured since its construction around 1900 vividly illustrates the rich tapestry of history woven into the fabric of Newton Falls. This structure, with its enduring iron bars from the original teller's windows and bank safe, serves as a tangible link to the past, echoing the bustling activity that once characterized the local banking scene. Notably, it also played a pivotal role as home to the Davis Insurance Agency for many years, further embedding itself in the community's narrative. As photographs reveal its longstanding presence in downtown Newton Falls, it becomes clear that this building is not merely an architectural relic but a cornerstone of local heritage, embodying the stories and memories that continue to shape the identity of this vibrant town.

Paranormal activity within this building (and those adjacently connected) varies from strange footsteps being heard, cold spots being experienced, strange whispers or conversations, as well as items just flying off the shelves on their own accord. The current owners (Tom and Tracy Colosimo) have even captured paranormal activity on their security cameras, where one of the lights hanging from the ceiling began swinging on its own volition. The front-left corner of the building, where steps may have once led to the second floor and to the basement, is the main focus of activity. This building serves as an open case for PANICd/Our Haunted Travels, with plans for further investigations and research. We hope that these future explorations will illuminate the spectral happenings, providing deeper insights into the building's past and the spirits that may still linger there. As we continue our research, we remain eager to establish a connection between the reported sightings and the building's rich history.
