Pam Short directs tour participants’ attention to the unique architectural features of the Arcade building and passageway in downtown Lincoln. Saturday evening was the second and last tour session of the Historic Downtown Building Walk, featuring the Arcade, Shay parking lot and the former Sandel's gas station, now the Main Street Lincoln office. The tours were sponsored by Main Street Lincoln, Logan County Genealogical and Historical Society, and Lincoln Historic Homes and Buildings Commission. Main Street director Wanda Lee Rohlfs said that future tours have not been determined yet, but there would probably be more featuring some of the other historic buildings in downtown Lincoln.
On Saturday, "Lincoln goes Shakespeare for Lincoln."
