Fittingly
featured in the center of this mural is an image of Dr. U. E. and Myrtle
Nickell with their new 1914 Model T Ford.
The
illustration of the 1907 Nickell Medicall Office shows a modest beginning.
By
1925 the Nickell Medical Office had moved to a more substantial location.
1903
J. G. McCue General Merchandise. I'm not aware of the location of this
little store, or of it's connection to Dr. Nickell.
I
don't have a specific date for this church, but it is also featured
on the "1910 Broadway" mural across the street.
Did
You Know: Many parts of the old 4 lane Route 66 were reverted to a 2 lane
road after 66 was realigned to the interstate. In many places the abandoned
lanes are still there.
