Earlier this summer we suggested to Ben that he located some familiar, but, "well, I'm not really certain where this scene is to be found in Ada" photos.
So far he has tossed several photos at Icon viewers including one from the post office, swimming pool and a nighttime deposit box from a former Ada utility office that is now John and Toni's.
Here he goes again.
We "Betz" you've walked by this building countless times.
Name the business that is located in the building today.
