Center Block Corner Grand and E. Lincoln; Built 1899
The corner tower of the Center Block is a familiar landmark for Las Vegans. The unusual corner entrance, composed of twin Richardsonian Romanesque arches, helps the building make a transition from Grand Avenue to Lincoln Street. It housed a pharmacy and professional offices from 1902 to 1921. This building was featured in the movie "Red Dawn". It was set on fire as part of the movie and, even though the directors of the movie provided funds to renovate the building, the damage from the fire can still be seen.
