Looking South On N. Yates St., Ashland, Illinois

The Village of Ashland has two main commercial streets, W. Editor and N. Yates St. Having already posted scenes on W. Editor, today we turn our attention on the first of several views of N. Yates St. I will posting before closing out this series.

 

This first view looks south from midway in the 100 block of N. Yates. Just ahead is the intersection of N. Yates and W. Editor St. While many of the old commercial buildings on N. Yates St. still stand, most have seen their facades significantly modified.

 

This west central Illinois community had a population of 1,137 at the 2020 census, making it the third largest population center in Cass County behind Beardstown and Virginia, the county seat.
