September 30, 2015: The building discussed below.
The building that once housed a Kum & Go at the southeast corner of IA 10 and IA 12 in Hawarden is going away for a new property.
Sometime after my 2015 visit, Big Sioux Embroidery moved into the Kum & Go building, even using the same elliptical sign. The N’West Iowa Review reports that Peoples Bank and Peoples Insurance will have a new building there in March 2022.
This is an out of the way report, but I thought it was interesting, since I’ve photographed the corner in question three times. Also, it’s always good to see an old site get used.
