Concrete's downtown is distinguished by its many fireproof Portland cement buildings. It was reconstructed after disastrous fires in 1915 and 1921 destroyed or damaged many of the original wooden buildings. Construction techniques from different eras remain visible. Pouring concrete into reinforced wooden forms was the standard method from 1913 through the 1920's, and the walls of these buildings retain horizontal form board lines and sometimes visible wood grain. From the Eagles Lodge to the west, buildings date from 1919, including the Model and the Argerin, to 1923, including the Concrete Theatre. The Fire Department at the end of Main Street dates from 1925. Ornamental cornices and lettering were added to top structures for visual interest, and over the years many buildings concealed their cement behind decorative fronts of wood, stucco, or other materials. More elaborate poured concrete construction appears in the 1932 building on the corner of Main and Dillard, the Verizon phone building. Concrete block construction was developed in the 1940's and included glass block inserts, as seen in the American Legion and buildings to the east. The most recent building destroyed by fire, in 2004, was rebuilt in wood-frame at the corner of Main and Baker as a restaurant. The sculpture of The Bear was carved from a 1500-year-old Douglas fir log and mounted on a cement pedestal in 1993.
