Brown, J. Ira - 1889

CITY NEWS.
Mr. J. Ira Brown has been making a number of substantial improvements on his property west of the court house.  As a result of an expenditure of several thousand dollars, two large two story frame buildings, one 60x40 and the other 24x60, occupy the N. E. corner of Henry and Kentucky streets.

The first one will be used for shops and livery barn, and the second for a carpenter shop below and a tenement above.  He is prepareing <sic> to make a number of other improvements on his property when completed, that corner will be one of he finest in the city.  Mr. Brown should be commended for his enterprise and his example could be followed by others to good advantage.
