MORE PROGRESS IN MAQUOKETA....,
THIS IS QUARRY STREET AND THIS BUILDING IS ACROSS FROM THE HOSPITAL.
THIS BUILDING WAS FOR MANY YEARS, THE OFFICE OF DR. FRED SWIFT. THEN IT BECAME MAQUOKETA MEDICAL ASSOCIATES FOR MANY YEARS UNTIL
THEY MOVED TO WEST PLATT STREET IN THE FORMER JACK AND JILL
BUILDING. HERE, TO THE SOUTH, THE DOCTORS HAD PURCHASED A LITTLE
HOUSE AND CONNECTED IT TO THE CORNER BUILDING AND THE DOCTORS
ALSO ADDED A SECOND STORY TO PART OF THE CORNER BUILDING.
THIS YEAR, IT CONTINUED TO BE THE RENTAL HOME OF "HOSPICE OF JACKSON
COUNTY" AND WAS FOR SALE BY THE DOCTORS. WELL, THEY SOLD IT
TO MIKE OWEN AND SCOTT HANSEN. "HOSPICE" WILL BE MOVING AND
MIKE AND SCOTT ARE CONVERTING IT TO APARTMENTS. BUT FIRST,
THIS DISCONNECTED THE LITTLE HOUSE AND IT IS NOW "FOR SALE" AS
A LITTLE HOUSE AGAIN, WITH ATTACHED GARAGE. NEXT, THE CORNER
BUILDING. ALL SHOULD SELL/RENT OKAY AS BRIGGS SCHOOL IS NOT FAR
AWAY.
