Community Rallies To Save Eyesore

HUBBARD, IA—Hubbard residents came out in force Monday to protest the planned Sept. 1 demolition of an unsightly, 1930s-era silo to make room for a halfway house and library. “This rusted, structurally unsound monstrosity is part of our shared heritage,” said Save Our Silos president Ivy Case, handcuffing herself to the eyesore. “Tearing down this dilapidated, dangerous hulk would be like tearing the ugly heart out of this town.”
