Dress Shop Building

Hi All,
Thought I'd update everyone on the progress if this newly constructed building on Main Street.


This is how the construction looked on Thursday, July 17th 2025.


On Saturday, July 19th 2025. A good crew was working on the roof and completing the roof before shutting down for the day.


Andrew Meyer and ? were working on the ridge of the roof installing each metal roof panel.


Merlyn and Dale overseeing the business going on under the Main Street Shelter.


Roger Meyer, Chris Anderson and Nick Nelson were the "lower" crew securing the roof panels with support of scaffolding.


Here's the last photo I took of the overall operation of installing the metal roofing panels on the new Dress Shop Building.

I apologize for not getting everyone's name in each photo shown.
Thank you to everyone who has been and will continue to work on this new building.
Take care, Karl.

I took these few photos on Sunday after work was completed for the weekend.


Northerly side.


West side facing Main St.


Southerly side.

Progress is really coming along great.
Even with how the heat index was especially difficult the whole weekend.
Staying hydrated was definitively the need for this past weekend.


This view was east of the show grounds along the back roads. After I finished helping in the Blacksmith Shop. I needed some fast moving air along with a/c. We had storms moving to the south most of Sunday and while on the back roads I spied this neat scenery view.
Thank you to all who have and are helping on the Dress Shop building project.
Take care, Karl

Watching the folks up on the roof made my knees hurt!
Thanks to the crew working on this. I am looking forward to seeing more progress.

After the Fact...
I got tied up with the 2025 WMSTR Show.
I wanted to end this thread with the finished, completed building project.
It was a great hit with the public and an awesome compliment for Main Street.
Thank You for everyone invovled with making and seeing this project to completion. Your effort is very much always appreciated.
Take care, Karl
