Its first occupant appears to be Julius M. Gallys tavern. Gally was here until the mid 1920s, but during prohibition, his establishment was listed in city directories as a restaurant or soft drink bar. Gally was succeeded by a number of soft drink vendors and taverns, including Lawrence Jacksons Tavern throughout the 1940s, and the Blue Note Tavern throughout the 1950s, 1960s and into the mid 1970s. This building was rehabilitated in 1980 for office use, and since then has housed a construction company.Architectural Description: The plan for the Anheuser Busch Saloon makes effective use of the triangular lot created by the intersection of Fort Wayne Avenue, New Jersey and St. Joseph Streets. It is a two-story brick building trimmed in limestone. The main entrance is located in a two bay facade that parallels Fort Wayne Avenue. The doorway is slightly recessed and topped by plain glass transom. Beneath the first floor window is a rectangular brick panel.St. Joseph Historic Area Preservation Plan, 1991 commercial
