I've been right where you are several times. That's actually a nice quiet area but it's slowly getting filled with foreigners thanks to the crappy governor Andy beshear.
Yes it was the old YMCA bldg...there had been an entire Plaza built of concrete that included a 18 story tower that was imploded many years ago. It all encompassed about 8 square blocks. This is the last of it being demolished...It was all built in the early 1970's and all was in poor condition... We now have 2 large buildings and a parking garage where the old tower stood. What an improvement for our city! Downtown is a very active area with restaurants, a couple of pubs and Shopping Thank you for covering this town. It's a great place to live!!!
