Description: Looking north on US Highway 281 from 1st. Sree. to the intersection with US highway 180 (Hubbard Street). The first building on the right is Lynch Plaza, location of the mineral water discovery well that gave Mineral Wells its name and made it the leading health spa in the state. Other businesses are: Cole's Florist on the west (left) corner of the block opposite Lynch Plaza, Poston's Dry goods (low building in middle of block north of Cole's), First State Bank on the corner north of Lynch Plaza. The Crazy Hotel can be seen in the distance; three blocks up the street on the left. Oak St was widened with turn lanes in 2005.
