Six months ago, a crash took down the 40-year-old waterwheel that’s greeted Highway 50 since 1985. This week, it’s turning again — rebuilt from the original plans, in the exact spot generations of drivers know as “the building with the wheel.” 🎉
We were proud to celebrate the ribbon cutting with the team at Naturwood Home Furnishings — family-owned since 1948, and it shows in how much care went into getting this landmark right.
Judging by all the honks and waves from Highway 50, we weren’t the only ones happy to see it back.
Welcome back, wheel. 💙
