Three Foot Johnson Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 During the '70's, Helena had a big "urban renewal" program, and most of what was left of those old buildings was torn down. I remember some of them along old Bridge street/State street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
