So basically right behind it more or less on the same block?

Hymiebravo....yes it was right at the corner of Newton and William St OR kiddy corner from the Post Office.....just was a small drive up building like it was  pictured on that bag Geo had on here.

Ah. Okay thanks.

Things must have been squeezed in there pretty good. When you consider there was another building between it and the bank.

Or at least I would imagine that building was still there. The one they tore down that was BEHIND the "big bank" on William there.

Wasn't to bad....enough for cars to park facing building that was wrecked and a lane for cars to drive around the building to be parallel to Newton Ave.  Then drive out on to William St when they were finished with the banking business.
