Farmer's Cooperative Building

Lincoln County Co-op. Exterior view of cooperative store building -- 1950s.  From the MDAH archives.

Another curbside snapshot that takes us back in time.  I am not sure that this building still stands today. 

UPDATE:  Not only does it still stand, the building lives on as a pawn shop, AND the metal awning is still there! Just down the street is an auto parts store (and still is today in some iteration).  The tall building in the background is the T.H. Perkins Furniture Store, which is now home to upper floor apartments and the ever favorite Fox's Pizza on street level.

  1. I think it is still standing and became an auto parts store.

  2. Actually, the auto parts store is just south of this building, which is now a pawn shop. The original awning is still there.
