Historical Museum is looking for a new home for the city’s treasures after a storm damaged the building on Commercial Street. A portion of the roof of the museum at 410 Commercial St. collapsed under the weight of rainwater during a May 5 storm. Some items in the museum were destroyed because of this, including a piano and a display relating to trains of Southeast Kansas. Kevin Sheddrick, museum board president, said the building was beyond repair.
