The Pierce Building (1903) was across Main Street from the Idanha Hotel (1901). The Pierce Building (right) was demolished in 1975 but remains visible in this 1908 photograph, and the building's corner turret has been preserved in C. W. Moore Park. Pierce & Co. purchased the corner lot with 50-foot frontage on Main Street in 1894, paying owner John M. Bray $9000. Pierce Building (right), Idanha Hotel (left).jpg
