Description
The 107-year-old James Block at the southeast corner of Main Street and Broadway poses for its last portrait as it awaits a wrecking boom. The structure, which consisted of two sections housing the Picky Nicky Cafe and Herman's Clothes Shop, was demolished Sunday after the city ruled it unsafe. Several hundred spectators watched the tricky operation.
