While it's nothing to get excited about, the building, or what's left of it, appears to still stand--the angle and drainpipe at right in both photos is the same. While Nash itself would survive the Crash and then the Depression, Almquist's timing wasn't good and his presence in the building didn't last long. Kurtz Dodge was in residence by 1932; Glenn Austin Chrysler by 1935; Frost and French Packard by 1943; and Jackson Kaiser-Frazer by 1948. When this great Art Deco building lost its character is unknown. This remodel is a huge improvement, isn't it?
