It deteriorated to the point that it had to be demolished in the late 1970s.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Date<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>N\/A<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tags<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"taxonomy-post_tag wp-block-post-terms\"><a href=\"https:\/\/shelbykyhistory.org\/index.php\/tag\/people\/\" rel=\"tag\">People<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Source<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Portrait of the Past<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Jim Cleveland Photo Collection ID 0082<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Rights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This file may be downloaded for personal, research, or classroom use, free of charge.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Originally the home of Benjamin Washburn<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":27,"featured_media":3452,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_eb_attr":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[52],"tags":[93],"post_folder":[77],"class_list":["post-3976","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-photo","tag-people"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/shelbykyhistory.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3976","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/shelbykyhistory.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/shelbykyhistory.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shelbykyhistory.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/27"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shelbykyhistory.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3976"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/shelbykyhistory.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3976\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4069,"href":"https:\/\/shelbykyhistory.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3976\/revisions\/4069"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shelbykyhistory.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3452"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/shelbykyhistory.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3976"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shelbykyhistory.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3976"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shelbykyhistory.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3976"},{"taxonomy":"post_folder","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shelbykyhistory.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/post_folder?post=3976"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
