Kress - Brownsville. Texas - a photo on Flickriver

            The Kress Building, the one with the blue and red K (K-Mart?) upper left, was built in 1927. It looked like many of the early Kress Buildings you can find images of on-line. I think Kress eventually purchased the building on the right (brick facade) when they expanded their operations. The building on the far left is the Brownsville City Hall and U.S. Post office, built in 1931. You can find an old post card image of the Kress Building as it originally looked by visiting "emporiumzone" on Flickr.  Brownsville, Texas. 7.7.2017
