Description

An original townsite home is reflected in the window of Bonnie's Floral Boutique at 117 W. Atlantic Ave in downtown Henderson. Built in 1942, the buildings were designed as temporary housing for workers employed at the Basic Magnesium Inc. manufacturing facility constructed during World War II. After the city's incorporation in 1953, several of the homes were converted to businesses like Bonnie's.
