Oak bench




              This piece sits in the corner entryway between the downtown fire station and the offices that include the Senior Center.  Nice looking vintage oak bench, with very little issues, other than one slat mostly missing. No one sits in it much. The entryway is too cool in the winter and too hot in the summer, plus there is nothing to do there, unless you are waiting for something; and that would not be long or you would sit in the main lobby. The building was built I think in 1950 as the main police and fire station.  There is still a fire station, but the police have moved to new digs that actually now are inadequate.  Although they were turned down by the voters this year in a request for a new facility that would amalgamate all the scattered places they work out of at the present.
