Subject Date

1911

Description

After the Great Fire, the ruined remains of the Morse Oliver Building were dynamited. Although several other buildings incorporated their former structures when they were rebuilt, the city's reorganization and rebuilding plan required broader roads and relocated buildings. After the seven story building was destroyed, no other buildings in the downtown district were built as tall, most confining themselves to four stories.
