All have been extensively remodeled with false fronts of various <br />types. This property has been re-clad with a shingled roof above a remodeled storefront. <br />Unlike the others, the red brick parapet of the ori~nal building is exposed. <br /> <br />Significance <br /> <br />This building has no historic integrity, although it is possible that a portion of the <br />original facade survives behind the modernizations. The building under the fagade <br />alterations was reportedly built in 1911, after an earlier fire that destroyed this section of <br />the block. <br /> <br />715 Main <br />Street <br /> <br />Elk River Historic Contexts and Phase H Downtown Commercial Area Study <br /> 89 <br /> <br /> <br />
