The New Edinburg Commercial Historic District encompasses the historic commercial center of New Edinburg, Arkansas. It includes ten contributing buildings lining Arkansas Highway 8, just north of its junction with Farm Market and Banks Roads.

The Tyson Family Commercial Building is a historic commercial building at 151 Adams Street SE in Camden, Arkansas. Built c. 1923, this vernacular 1+1⁄2 story brick commercial block is one of the few to survive in the city from this time. Its main facade consists of three brick pilasters separated by plate glass windows supported by a metal frame. These are topped by a series of smaller transom windows. The two sections of the front are unequal in size, and one is slightly angled from the other. Although a number of similar buildings were built in the 1920s, most were destroyed by fire in the 1960s. It has always housed a general store.
The Stamps Store is a historic commercial building on Arkansas Highway 103 in Osage, Arkansas, a hamlet off United States Route 412 between Alpena and Huntsville. It is a 2+1⁄2-story stone structure, with a front-gable roof, and vernacular Romanesque Revival styling. The first floor was originally a large open retail space used as a general store, the second floor was a residential space for the proprietor, and the upper half-story was a meeting space. It was built 1899-1902 by Willie and Millie Sneed, and was operated by the Stamps family from 1912 to 1990. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990 for its architecture and its historical importance to the small community.
The Bunch Store is a historic commercial building at 100 Public Square in Kingston, Madison County, Arkansas. It is located at the northwest corner of the main square, and is a two-story wood-frame structure with a gable roof over its left two-thirds, and a flat roof over the remainder. The building is distinctively 6 inches (15 cm) out of plumb, giving it a noticeable tilt, although its doorways and windows are properly square and plumb, suggesting that something occurred during construction to shift the frame of the building. The store was one of the first commercial buildings constructed in the town after the American Civil War, which was effectively destroyed, apparently by marauding bandits, during the war.
The Southern Mercantile Building is a historic commercial building at 107 East Buchanan in Prairie Grove, Arkansas. It is a single-story brick and masonry structure, with a stuccoed parapet. It consists of two separate buildings, one dating to 1883, that were combined under the unifying parapet about 1920. The building is the largest and best-preserved example of that period's commercial architecture in the city. It served for many years as Prairie Grove's largest and most important general store, finally closing its doors in 1987.
The Augusta Commercial Historic District encompasses the historic commercial center of the city of Augusta, Arkansas. Located on the eastern bank of the White River, Augusta developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as a major crossing point of the river in eastern Arkansas.

The Cotton Plant Commercial Historic District encompasses the historic civic and commercial center of the city of Cotton Plant, Arkansas. It includes about two blocks of Main Street, between Elm and Ash on the south side, and between Pine and just short of Vine on the north side. The district includes 19 historically significant buildings dating, most of which were built between about 1900 and 1930. The town grew as a railroad shipping center for cotton beginning in the 1880s, but major fires in 1901 and 1924 devastated parts of its downtown, resulting in a large number of early 20th-century commercial brick buildings.
The Fitzhugh Snapp Company is a historic commercial building in rural Woodruff County, Arkansas.

The district includes 26 historically significant buildings in a 2-1/2 block area north of the railroad tracks, including a few buildings facing adjacent streets. McCrory was founded in 1890, and much of its early commercial building stock was wood-frame. Beginning about 1900 use of brick and stone in construction grew, and after a major fire in 1909 most of the buildings were built in brick. The area achieved most of its present appearance by about 1930. Most of the buildings are a single story in height, with a few that are two.
The Woodruff County Courthouse is a historic courthouse at 500 North 3rd Street in Augusta, the county seat of Woodruff County, Arkansas.

It is a single-story wood-frame structure with modest Greek Revival styling. Its construction date was long thought to be 1920, but it was more likely built around 1900, still an extremely late date for the Greek Revival. It was converted into a post office and general store in the 1920s by Henry Kuykendall.
Hankins' Store is a historic commercial building at Ferry Road and Main Street in Oil Trough, Arkansas. It is a single-story wood-frame structure, built out of local cypress lumber, with a gable roof and clapboard siding that is original to its 1904 construction. An open porch extends across its front. The store stands near the White River Slough, a former course of the White River. It served the local community for almost exactly 100 years, closing in 2004, and typifies early 20th-century general stores.
The Mays General Store is a historic commercial building on Frost Street in Gilbert, Arkansas, United States. It is a single-story vernacular brick building, built as two separate buildings in 1901 and 1906, at which time the intervening wall was knocked out. It has two separate storefronts, each with entrances recessed in angled opening, with transom windows above the doors. The interior retains original shelving and wainscoting, as well as display cases and other fixtures. The porch was replaced in the 1930s.

The C.L. Smith & Son General Store is a historic commercial building on Arkansas Highway 66, opposite the courthouse square, in central Mountain View, Arkansas. It is a single-story stone structure, with vernacular Romanesque styling consisting of round-arch window openings flanking a similar entry opening.

It is located south of Searcy, at the southwest corner of the junction of County Roads 62 and 433, known locally as Vinity Corner. It is a single-story wood-frame structure, finished with sheet metal siding, instead of brick that was more typically used for commercial construction. Its front faces east, with three fixed windows flanking a double-door entry, and a shed-roof porch extending across its width. It was built about 1925, when the area was more prosperous than it is now, and is its only surviving commercial remnant.

The facade is symmetrical, with a pair of entrances, each flanked by sash windows. A parapet above the porch roof is adorned with a sign identifying the building. The building site was where the first general store and post office were located in the village of Dutch Mills, when it was first settled by German immigrants in the 1860s. The present building is in part built in 1925 as a replacement for an earlier store destroyed by fire, and in part from a nearby filling station building, which was grafted onto it. In addition to housing the community store, it also served as its post office until 1968.
