1.This is a historic picture of old downtown Roanoke and the new Roanoke. It was very busy

2.The buildings that were three are still standing

3.The differences that stand out is the side walk they have built and the street isn’t as busy.

4.More buildings started getting old and some couldn’t be as tall and high.

5.Back then Roanoke was very busy with stores downtown and now Roanoke isn’t as busy like it used to be because the stores aren't there anymore

6.We think that next generation will take over and not know about the history of Roanoke and they will try to tare some of the buildings down.
