As in most towns, Greeneville's citizens balance the need to modernize and the desire to preserve structures from the city's 1800s heyday. Some buildings are being renovated with their historic grandeur in mind, and others are being sacrificed to accommodate contemporary necessities. Many of these vintage buildings can only be viewed through photographs.

Greeneville, Tennessee (Then and Now Series)
Simplistic and disjointed. Was really disappointed with how the book handled the overtly racist imagery on the facade of a north Seattle restaurant' it was pawned off as a case of the owner considering it a cute marketing gimmick to attract children. This sort of thing shouldn't be treated as a cutesy anecdote without censure. Why even tell this bit at all unless you're going to call out his ignorance? Is it part of the classically over-used "oh, he meant no harm" strategy? Because he did cause harm. Actively.
I know local history tomes aren't always held to the highest standards, but the failure to acknowledge the gross grimness of racist caricature and trying to spin it lighthearted? I found it pretty offensive and it hampered my enjoyment of the rest of the book.
