- perhaps the Chinese Laundry
- there is a shop next to this
- does it share this brick wall ?
- more research needed

Some old and well weathered bricks there and a couple of long time bricked-up widows in the lower half too. I see City Barber Shop has moved over the access road.

- thanks for visiting, Tim. The City Barber Shop is where you said, but I've not seen any activity. Know someone who used to stop in for a haircut, but he no longer does .. he doesn't know if they are still in business or ____.

Brick on brick...labor intensive, but sturdy in those days.

Peggy C replied to Dick M:

- very sturdy ----- these buildings that are being re-purposed keep the town alive. If you don't know where you have been -- how can you know where you should go ?
- of course, the bricks are elegant to me .. even if they are crumbling ... they can be used ... it takes imagination !
