On this day in 1917, the newspaper mentioned several building projects taking place in the city:
The Auditorium, damaged in a fire, is being rebuilt on North Liberty Street.
A large addition is being made to the front of the Zinzendorf Hotel on North Main Street.
The ground is being cleared for the erection of the Kress Store on the burned block north of the courthouse.
The photo above shows the Zinzendorf Hotel on Main Street (at left), and the remodeled Zinzendorf Hotel (at right) showing the addition that was made to the front of the hotel.
