Much more on this building coming soon.
This formed concrete block building has stood at the corner of 1st and Main Street since 1910 and currently houses an office of Edward Jones.

Nice photo.
Thanks!
So glad to see that whoever restored/renovated the building had the good sense to pick window awnings that echo the concrete blocks… great photo – thanks for visiting!
The building is mentioned in the write-up from when the entire downtown area was nominated for the National Historic Register. Back then, some of the windows had plywood over it. It’s definitely better off today! Tomorrow’ post includes pictures of when the building was first constructed in 1910 and the history of the building.
