They took another length of sidewalk away from me. It's almost like they're trying to hide this, the largest thing in all of #Kalamazoo, from me 😆 Looking east down W Water Street from N Westnedge Avenue. There is no more pedestrian access here. But Bill will find a way. #photography #construction

One last dad joke? Oscar M. Allen was one of the founders and president of the Globe Casket Company in Kalamazoo, Michigan. It was one of the nation's leading casket manufacturers. It lasted from 1870 to 1950. Mr. Allen died in 1910. Mountain Home #Cemetery, #Kalamazoo, #Michigan #photography
