Photos by Ken Collins
There's a famous 111-year-old Ada resident getting a facelift this week. It's the building housing the Ada Herald and Body Works in the 200 block of North Main Street.
The building is also known by residents who look into the sky and see "IOOF 427 1905."
The means that the top floor of the building was one the lodge all for the Ada Independent Order of Odd Fellows, a once popular society at the turn of an earlier century.
Ken Collins took several photos of brick point and tuck work going on. We couldn't decide which photo we liked the best, so we posted all of them.
