Not Really a Jewel


Jewelers Building Historic, originally uploaded by kendoman26.

When I arrived to work Monday morning I was greeted by the Landmark plaque at the doorway. The plaque seemed to gone missing several years ago when the city forced the landlord to restore the front facade.

If my memory serves me, this plaque used to be near the alley to the left of the building. In it's new location it won't harm the recreated front facade. While the exterior of the structure can be restored, there's not much hope for the interior. I don't think an original detail is left and this makes me sad. It's sort of cool though to work in a Landmark.
