This is the "WAKY Building" as it looks in 2005. According to Gary
Clark (who shot this photo
and the one below), the nail salon only
occupies a small part of the front of the building. |

Len King provides the caption for this
one: "Gary Burbank, Len King & Marty Bass stand aimlessly where the
WAKY control room once was on the River City Mall. On the back wall
is the original sound-proof window that separated the control and
news rooms. Today, the shop is a nail salon where people are fed
tiny twigs of scotch-worm while their nails are brushed, polished
and hammered." |
