Palace Drug Store, original inhabitant of the Wise building. By 1915, it had been replaced by Hadley Drugs.
Main and West Central, 1910
The picture above shows a dirt Main Street. It had already begun to be paved. Note the remodeling on the corner building performed by the next tenant. A facade over the front and side corner, two windows replaced with three, and the south roofline reworked. And that amazing Hadley’s stained glass added, of course.

3 N Main still possesses the original façade of cast iron that was purchased by the piece from a catalog out of St. Louis. It is one of only sixteen of its kind in Oklahoma.
