Title: Werby Building
Description: Photograph of the Werby Building at the southeast corner of 39th and Main Streets in 1979. The building was designed by Greenebaum, Hardy and Schumacher, opened in 1924, and consisted of office spaces on the second floor and storefronts on the ground level. Efforts to save the building from demolition led to Mayor Richard Berkley named a week in April 1979 "Werby Week," but it was razed not long after. Signs on plywood boards across the storefronts advertise a "Take Back the Night" event, an anti-nuclear energy rally to take place in Burlington, Kansas, at the Wolf Creek Generating Station, and upcoming concerts. The Hyde Park Building, on the northeast corner of 39th and Main, can be seen at the left of the photo, with the Hotel Netherlands to its north.
