The Ashby Block, northwest corner of Sixth Avenue and Main Street, probably 1905. Built by S. C. Ashby and Charles A. Broadwater in 1883, it was demolished in 1929 to make way for the First National Bank Building. The corner windows of the Ashby Block were popular perches for photgraphers, who documented numerous parades on the Gulch from there.
