I do too. No the old court house was torn down to build the new one, We alway tear down everything to make new.

I am the great-granddaughter of the developer/owner Jack Curry. I have a pen & ink of the Ridgeway. I also have a picture of the Allen Hotel as well. When is the dedication? Thank you, Ann Rossini
