Newspapers and other trash find an .easy spot to locate, broken w indows, burned wood and exposed bricks present an unattractive scene for persons planning on opening a business in Layton, coming to the community in search of a home, or just driving through.

ARE Why not tear it down? Laytons empty business buildings are filling up; structure just south of Kowley Drug will be an immense help in giving the community an attractive main street; Adams Super Market has a new entrance, another asset. We hope other businessmen along the street are planning new spring painting or other improvements for the front of their stores. a new ... and we hope someone, somewhere is right now S do to something about getting rid of planning EIGGEST EYESORE, the old theatre building. We have been told that the fire which destroyed it did such a thorough job that its shell is now useless for rebuilding, so why keep the structure standing. It presents a most unattractive site for visitors to the city and it makes it rather difficult for those who live in the city to be proud of their main street. As it stands, its entrance provides a trash gathering place, and its boarded up doors with their broken windows seem t.o be the ideal place for small boys to write dirty words. Part of the windows in the ticket booth have been broken out and advertising display windows have been smashed, background material removed and bricks exposed. It is possible for children to get inside through the broken door windows also, making it a dangerous hazard as well as an eyesore.
