Favorite Old Photo: Burkesville Street before current CUMC 2015-10-08 - Burkesville Street, Columbia, KY - Photo from collection of Joe Flowers. The photo was taken after the old sanctuary at Columbia United Methodist Church was razed and before the current building was erected. At left, on Burkesville Street, there are three services stations: 1) The Texaco outlet 2) Next Joe Hutchison's Ashland (or is it Aetna at the time) then Fortune Street, then Willard Cheatham's Gulf Station (where the Chamber Building is today. Notice that Fortune Street has two residences where the Chamber Parking lot is today and where the Duo-County exchange is located and that there were many more trees at the time. The large building in the center was the Ford sales building - didn't learn from Joe Flowers which iteration - Adair Sales or Smith-Flowers. That building is now Madison Square. The Ford dealership's new car display is around the building and on the right in the photo, where South Central Design is located today. Next out Burkesville Street is the U.S. Post Office of the day, in the building now occupied by Downey Eye Clinic. Comments and corrections are welcome.
