The Hilleman Stand, later known as the Milleville Stettbacher Store.
This building, located north of the triangle, was one of the oldest in Altamont. It was built in 1873 by George Hilleman and later became a furniture factory, grocery store, and a general store. The upper floor was the home of “The Altamont Courier,” Altamont’s first newspaper, which was founded in 1873.
The building was demolished in 1959. A modern building was constructed on the site, and the Altamont Independent Newspaper occupied the building for many years.
