Our Building
By Steve Cronkhite
The photo above is from a
postcard showing the building circa 1905, when it was first built. Notice the main floor; it is all glass in
front. With the double doors, that are still there, on the right leading to
the stairway to the second floor.
There was a drug store on the left and a print shop on the right on
the main floor.
Also, you will notice
windows on the second floor running down the whole building. Those windows are still there but they
have been bricked up on the inside in the upper lodge room. The windows are there because originally
the upper lodge room was the same size as the lodge room now on the main
floor and the south side of the building housed a dining room and kitchen
on the second floor.
