     T. E. Jackson, a prominent businessman from Fort Griffin (15 miles north) built this structure in the late 1870s as a warehouse for a general merchandise store. For more than 100 years, it served the town of Albany as the site of various commercial business, including photography studios and a cafe. The well-known department store Sanger Brothers owned the Jackson Warehouse from 1887 until 1906. The Jackson Warehouse is important as a reminder of the commercial business that made Albany an important supply point for the West Texas cattle industry. Texas Sesquicentennial, 1836-1986.
