Yes. Mr. Norm’s was across the street on Grand Ave. Recently, photos of the dealership have been going around on car pages.

Yes it was Mr
Norms performance shop, the old dealership is still across the street, for those of us that live in the neighborhood, we referred it to the Heroin Hotel as there were many heroin addicts living in the abandoned building. They started knocking down the Building today, a SAD day in History for those of is who knew or know the iconic history of that building!

Nice Photos, I love the photo of Squad 2A, Tower 23 and maybe Tower 10, and the sun coming up in the background.

I believe that this is THE Mr Norm’s Grand Spaulding Dodge building.

Dodge/Hemi/muscle car enthusiasts should Google it…

Was only a matter of time before a fire would take off in that building. It had been tried several times before but I guess this morning was its day.
