It’s time once again for #FlashbackFriday with the Whitewater Historical Society. This month we will be featuring major fires in Whitewater. Most of us are aware of the famous 1970 Old Main fire, but did you know that Old Main burned in 1891? This image shows the after effect of this fire that primarily destroyed the original front portion of the building. This section was rebuilt with a new, impressive front that existed until the 1970 fire.
