116 East Third

— Waterloo, Monroe Co. Ill., Laid Out in 1818 —

section is now the Waterloo Chamber of Commerce. The Moellers built these additions to their home for their daughters as they started their own families.

The home stayed in the Moeller family until 1925, at which point it was sold to Dr. Justin and Julia McConnell. Dr. McConnell used the second floor as his dental office through the 1960s, and the lower floor was turned into apartments throughout the 1920s and 1930s. Glenn Grosse, the great-grandson of John Moeller, bought the property right before 1970, and the building was used as a residence and rental apartments downstairs; upstairs continued to hold a variety of offices. From 1994 onwards, Nancy and Glenn Grosse transformed the building into the Echoes of the Past antique shop; it continued as this until its renovation into Hopskeller Brewing Company, which began in the summer of 2014.
