Coming soon, a view we've never seen before 2012-03-04 - Jamestown Street and Russell Road, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. Oldtimers can think about it When the buildings ahead, in the far left, are torn down, there will be a view we've never seen before. When the structures facing Russell Road, starting with Tommy Grider's building on the left to Central Kentucky Realty were first built, they were built on an excavation dug from a hill behind them which was higher than the lowest section of that run of buildings. On top of that hill there was a 2.5 story frame house, which dominated the skyline along with the tallest trees in town. When the Hot Prints/Movieland building was constructed, later, the rest of the hill was leveled. When these buildings are totally razed, it won't mean, as the removal of Long John Silvers building removal did, a temporary return to the original elevation, but, briefly, an all new, flatter view until the new CVS Drug Store is built on the site.
