Downtown Renovations

Several downtown merchants and community members came down to support two downtown businesses, Pioneer Photography and Oller, Johnson & Bittel Attorneys at Law, Friday, April 18 as they hosted a joint ribbon cutting to celebrate the completion of their recent building renovations.

Leon and Ann Staab, owners of Pioneer Photography, located at 115 West 10th Street, began their renovations back in January 2006 in hopes to restore their building to the way it looked when it was originally built in 1886. They spent the next year making renovations to both the exterior and interior of the building and finished the construction this past fall. Paul Oller and Kip Johnson recently moved from their original location at 114 West 11th Street to their new location at 111 West 10th Street, where they made renovations to their building as well. In addition to moving their firm to a new location, Oller and Johnson also added a new partner, Blake Bittel, to the practice.
