Sidewalks continue across the street while the sidewalks themselves are well above the street. This era was a mixture, the automobile along with the horse and wagon.
The First National Bank, clothing store, drug store, the PJ Ness cash store and hardware store are some of the business on early Main Street. Wooden traffic signs, Model T Fords and a few people are seen. Many of these buildings remain today much as they were.
Four of these buildings remain today, looking much as they did in this picture. The building at the south end is under construction. It was the creamery. Today it is being renovated to be used as a brewery.
