We guessed wrong.<\/p>\n

For only the second time in SouthsideCentral history, I’m putting an article in the “Errors & Omissions” category. Thanks to some great City of Danville folks, we’ve gotten the full story on the security camera on Main St. Let’s look at “The Rest Of The Story”…<\/p>\n

Here’s the original article where we thought a well out-of-the-way security camera could have been a way to watch the new parking lot at the old Downtowner location. <\/a><\/p>\n

It turns out that the camera on the Herman building (circled in red) was the webcam that the city used to let people see the ongoing demolition process of the Downtowner motel. Once the process was complete, the city turned the webcam off. It’s hard to believe that that camera has been in place for over 3 years and I had never noticed it (or anybody else).<\/p>\n

So, we’ll blow up all of our “government is watching you” thoughts. Heh. We were the first soutce to point the camera out, but we blew it… and that’s The Rest Of The Story.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
