As years go by and downtown continues to be remodeled, it can be hard to recall or to see the history that is a significant element of most downtowns. When you are on S. Santa Fe, if you look up to the roof line, you will see the names of buildings that date back over 100 years. At ground level, you may also notice an effort being made to retain history, while adding a fresh modern style. One of the current projects is being done by Restore Construction in a stretch of buildings from 137 — 143 S. Santa Fe. This includes the historic Thomas Watson, T.W., Roach Building at 141-143. This will be the new home of Apron Strings, a kitchen store that is opening in October.
