The Stockbrands and Kemmerer Department Store stands at 100 E. Rutledge in Yates Center, Kansas, a brick structure completed in 1904 and designed by Kansas architect George P. Washburn in the Italianate style. Built by contractor Grant Naylor, the building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985 and serves as a key contributing property to the Yates Center Courthouse Square Historic District. Once known as the Light Hardware Building, it has been repurposed in recent years to house The Grand Ballroom at Light Hardware and Meet on Main, along with The Lanes at Light Hardware bowling alley adjoining it.
