ra ee SE eS Bi ust. Ae, erga f 15 Nevada City, the only town in the country that moves ahead by moving backward, will have another gold-time building restored to somewhat the way it used to look when Will Howard tackles the renovation ‘of the large building on Commercial Street recently called the Davis or Davies Building, previously the Transcript Building. The photo above was taken in 1912 when the gingerbread (but not the steel shutters) had been removed. At far left is the present draft board office and Lawyer Albert Johnson; then the Jackson Beehive Grocery (now Osborn/W oods). In the Howard building at far left behind shuttered doors is the present Chamber of Commerce office (the sign said Crystal White then, though). There was no sign on the next store (now Good Morning Foods), but the next one (Now the Meditation Center) was marked "Popular Bakery. The presently empty store had a target on the outside and what appears to be a circus poster inside. Across the top in large letters it says "TheDaily Transcript Printing and.." with the capital T, D, T and P neatly enlarged down the brick columns. The name of the paper occupied considerably more than the 24 square feet now allowed for signs under the historical ordinance. Note the pipe holding up the plain balcony-~-a far cry from the style of the 1800's. And what happened to the gable roof that was on Osborn/W oods ?.
