Now even the bones are visible at 114 E. Market Street.

And the exterior brick in front is gone.

I'm not sure how much more of the building can be stripped before there's nothing left except air.

Better times? Off with the mummy's vinyl at 114 E. Market Street.

Earlier today, I declined to guess how many cubic yards of debris were coming out of such a small building. However, I had no idea the vinyl was coming off today.

The perfect pedestal for a statue, isn't it?

But to whom?

That's a lot of cubic yards of debris coming out of a small building.

Resch Construction is on the third or fourth dumpster as the cleanup and future rehab continues at the former Good Times, 114 East Market Street.

Here's what it looked like, circa 1965. Is the facade still intact behind the vinyl? We'll find out soon.

There'll be more information when we get around to it.

The newspaper glances belatedly at the former Ace Loan and Good Times buildings.

What the Green Mouse knows, he isn't telling. Not yet. Meanwhile, NA Confidential previously gave consideration to both of these buildings.

You know, that building where Ace Loan & Sporting Goods used to be (110 E Market St).

Has time run out for Good Times? If so, what's next at 114 East Market?

Just imagine if the downtown furniture stores had windows. A boy can dream ...

Old Ace Loan & Sporting Goods store in New Albany to be converted, by Danielle Grady (Son of Cooking School Coming Soon)

Local developer also bought Good Times Bar & Grill

NEW ALBANY — A local developer has plans for the old Ace Loan & Sporting Goods location in downtown New Albany.

Steve Resch, who bought 110 E. Market St. a few years ago, plans to convert the building into a multi-tenant office space for professionals such as realtors or accountants.

“It’s basically geared toward people that want office space and want a building to work out of and only need one or two offices or a cluster of space,” Resch said.

I walked past Vickie's Good Time(s) Bar & Grill yesterday and peeked into the window. Items appear to have been boxed and stacked, as though to be hauled away.

About a month ago, the Green Mouse heard a rumor that the building was being purchased by a local businessman, and judging from the scene today, I'm guessing there is finality to the sale. It will be interesting to see what happens next. The building desperately needs deep cleaning and rehabilitation, so let's hope that's coming.

Here's the Historic Preservation Commission listing for 114 E. Market Street. Note that in the 1965 photo, Love's Cafe is up and running.

This heavily-altered commercial building was once home to Lewis Hammond's 'Yankee Doodle' store, the interior of which is seen below in a photo from about 1917.

The exterior photo, from the collection of the Indiana Room of the New Albany-Floyd County Public Library, shows this building circa 1965, with many of its historic features still exposed.

Are those three windows still somewhere beneath the vinyl? Only time will tell.
