Rantoul, Illinois. Looking SW at the intersection of E. Grove Avenue and N. Century Boulevard, U.S. 45. In the NE corner is St. Malachy’s Catholic Church. The NW corner is the Bible Baptist Church. The SW corner you’ll find an ARCO station, and the SE corner is a Conoco station. St. Malachy’s is still there. The Conoco is gone. The ARCO is now a used car lot, while Bible Baptist has a new building. Other highlights include a Brownie’s Store, and the Woolworth’s Department Store along Sangamon Ave. in the upper LH corner!
