Though damaged by fire twice, Joplin's first library building still has plenty to offer, including its architectural and historical story, preservationists say. The building has been listed for sale by the Glenn Group LLC, a commercial real estate firm. The asking price is $489,000. "It's a beautiful building," said commercial real estate broker Luke Gibson of the Glenn company. "The unfortunate fires of 2020 and last June have done quite a bit of damage, but it's still a gem." The most recent fire started in the basement about 5 a.
