Fred Lynch retired in 2018 after capturing images for the Southeast Missourian since 1975, in that time moving from black-and-white to color, from film to digital and to video. The blog title is a nod to an earlier era of news photography and the 4x5 Speed Graphic: It's more important to be there for the shot than to worry about technical details.

House razed for First Federal

Posted Friday, April 12, 2013, at 12:00 AM

March 16, 1963 Southeast Missourian

The old Bremermann House on Broadway is being razed to make way for a new building for First Federal Savings and Loan Association. The structure, long a landmark beside the post office, is seen looking from the back yard toward the Marquette Hotel with a corner of the post office at the left. The lot will be graded down to street level from Broadway to Themis. Several other buildings also are being removed to make way for the new building and accompanying parking lot. (G.D.
