The demolition of the Joynes Ben Franklin storage building on First Avenue, the former home to a number of Grand Marais businesses, is complete. Just moments after this photo was taken April 23, there was nothing left but a pile of old lumber. Workers with Edwin E. Thoreson, Inc. are conducting the final cleanup, but the building that served as home to the Bay View and Shore View hotels, the Photo Art Shop and Humphrey’s Clothing is gone.
