I was shocked last year when they actually tore down the old "petrified wood" rock building that was the original store for Wolfe Nursey. I beleive it was actually the Wolfes' home when 1st built. I really thought the city would purchase it because of it's historic value. Now all that is left is the side road, named Wolfe Nursery Road. Not quite the same, now, going by that corner. Don't know what they did with the debris, but there was an article about it in the paper after it was torn down that said rock hounds would come from all over to look at the various types of fossils and rocks that made up the building, some were quite rare. I find it incredible in this day and age when it seems historic places are given more consideration than they once were that this wasnt saved.
