What a shame the two nice turn of the century commercial buildings on the NE and SE corners of Broadway and Oak were demolished and replaced the with ugly 1970's concrete monstrosities that stand there today. This street scape lost all is continuity with their removal. At the time this photo was taken in October 1928 they housed two competing grocery stores, one being Safeway. Further down Broadway on the right can be seen the Minor Building which at that time housed Applegate's Furniture on the ground floor. Other business's on the block were Crown Drug and Jensen's Cafe.
