Photo 35-BLA-16

Comments

NW corner of Rt. 176 and Osage St., looking NW. Rt. 176 runs along the bottom of the photo, Osage St. is on the right. The Phillips 66 gas station was the Wauconda Cafe, but now it's vacant, the building at the top middle is vacant as well, and the National Store at the upper left is now the Ace Hardware. On the lower left of the photo, the sign says Boehmer Chevrolet, which used to be at 412 W. Liberty St. (Rt. 176). The dealership building on the lower left corner still stands and is now home to Wagner Plumbing Supply.
