description:

Gentry Building at the southwest corner of College Avenue and Fifth Street. The Columns seen on the Bradfute Building at left were salvaged and are utilized at the Billy Hayes Track and Field Complex on the Indiana University campus. The Collins-Seidle Co. was a grocery store. Page 14 of the publication: "Visionaries: A Tribute to Dagmar K. Riley" (1990 ?) published by the IU Foundation reads, in part: "At one time, Dagmar K. Riley walked through these pillars that formed the majestic entrance to the Herald-Telephone building in downtown Bloomington. After the H-T moved to the south side of town, Dagmar donated the four columns to Indiana University."
