Traffic on Main Street in downtown Lexington, June 11, 1976. The photo was taken from Cheapside street looking east. The Phoenix Hotel was demolished in 1981 and 1982 by Wallace Wilkinson, who had planned to build the World Coal Center skyscraper on the site. It was never built, and the site eventually became the Park Plaza Apartments and Phoenix Park.  Photo by Frank Anderson | staff
