Today's Main Street

How times have changed. Gildner-Johnson is gone and now the Northwood Anchor resides in their building. (Click on the picture and a larger view will open in a new window, showing the Anchor name.) The turret on top was apparently on the original building, removed for safety reasons, then rebuilt sometime in recent years.

Note the change in parking away from the parallel concept to allow for a wider highway but fewer cars able to park. But it doesn't make much difference when there's only one car parked within a thousand feet of the corner.
