Greetings all. I was driving down Main this morning and noticed all the day lilies on the corners. Thought it would make a good post. The building on the left started life as a car dealership back in the 20's. They had an elevator that was big enough to haul a car to the roof where they had a few to show off the new models I suppose. Later it became a Montgomery Wards building.

Fine photo of small-town America at its best.
Interesting history of that building.

Thanks Dave! After reading what I wrote I should have put 1920 instead of the 20's

Agree. I haven't taken a picture downtown for a while. Maybe I should.

Thanks Quint! I'll give you directions to find us and the Worlds Only Corn Palace, which is a block to the right of this photo. Tourist season winding down a bit but we normally have 300.000 visitors a year.

Thanks Peter, I would like to see that!

Perhaps when I get back. I'll be away from the internet again from today.
