2019:
The Cotton Exchange & Board of Trade Building was designed by Ben Milam and built in 1940. In 2011, just after the top row of photos were taken, part of the granite facade around the building's entrance fell to the ground. All of the tiles around both entrances were then removed. Apparently, they will not be replaced. The building is now being restored as apartments. [map]
