Downtown Glasgow Fire

Remembering a major fire in downtown Glasgow maybe about 1952.

I was just an elementary student in the North side school in Glasgow. I do remember the disaster, down to the fire hoses in the street while the fire was being fought.

I am sure that there are many residents that remember the day that so many businesses were lost. Businesses that were located on 2nd Ave. or Main St., as many thought of the street.

A couple of those remain in my mind—Hall Drug and the Roxy theatre ---but there were others, some rebuilt and others not. The old Smith Clinic and 1st National Bank seemed to have survived intact.

My memories only, I am sure others can make corrections and/or add to these memories.
