  6. The building has an interesting history but looks as though it needs a little work if it's going to continue to tell its tale to succeeding generations. Forgotten World Highway???

  17. I owned Douglas House 40 or so years ago for 3 years. it was a real adventure that I will never forget. The Needham's visited and were so thrilled to see it lived in.
    That house could tell some stories for sure.
