The Crosby Building, 717 Madison
This is the sort of architectural filler that makes a town worth living in. It was built, for George Crosby Realty, in 1940. The architect was Myron Hill. You can't tell from the picture, but the doors have nice leaded glass fanlights.
"All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, a light from the shadows shall spring; renewed shall be blade that was broken, the crownless again shall be king.”
