This is our town's old General Store. It was built in 1906, and is currently abandoned.

A local guy was going to buy it and renovate it, but it needed more work than we originally thought.

I think the store was abandoned around 2005... I remember eating here as a little boy. The candy containers are still on the counter, half full.

Holy cow that is a great building. What I would give to have that huge wrap around porch! I sincerely hope that building doesn't go to ruin. That would be a shame.

What was the man thinking? The interior walls would need to be gutted anyway, and new electrical and plumbing systems after that? SOP for older buildings. Was he just gonna move in as-is?

It was believed that the building had been somewhat maintained. He's a young guy, who just barely had enough money to buy the place, let alone redo all of the plumbing.

Nice rockbot, looks like an old barn?

Here is another picture of the store. It looks less pretty from different angles.

That's a sweet late-Victorian building. Hopefully, someone with the $$ will decide to save it. They don't build them like that anymore, and it would suck to see that structure replaced by a strip mall or some garbage pre-fab building [:'(] ~Jim
