HISTORIC BUILDING
120 FIRST ST.
No record available of when 120
First St. was built. From 1902 to 1907
it was a post office. From 1907 to
1930 a grocery store. On July 26,
1909 Carrie Nation gave a lecture
in front about the evils of alcohol.
It has been an electrical shop,
candy shop, bus station (1936-45),
sporting goods and liquor store
and later a wood carving shop.
Current owners are
The Storms and Andersons
DOWNTOWN ASSOCIATION 1992
The building is in good repair and is occupied by a woodcarving shop.
Date of Construction: c.1880
This brick one-part commercial block building has a rectangular footprint that is two bays wide. Storefront fenestration defines the bays and consists of an entrance door and an aluminum-framed plate glass window that rests on a three-foot-high brick bulkhead. A brick pier rises above the top of the storefront at the south end. Vertically grooved pressed wood siding covers the remainder of the facade.
The accumulation of non-historic alterations compromises the integrity of the building. It no longer
conveys its historic associations and is non-contributing to the historic district.

Visit Instructions:
To post a log to an existing U.S. Post Office waymark, you will need to post a picture of the front of the building, with the name of the post office in the background if that is possible.
A description of your Post Office is required, such as when it was built, history, outstanding or unique features, population of the city or town, just do a quick internet search and find an interesting bit of information about the city or town and add it to the long description, to make it more interesting. Even just adding in the population of the area can give others an idea of how many people this post office serves. This description should be at least three sentences.
If your Post Office has any unusual or unique features that you feel others would enjoy viewing, additional pictures are always welcome.
Including your gps device in the picture is not necessary, but wouldn't be cause for disapproval, as long as all other details of your log are acceptable.
