DOTHAN:     The City of Dothan is currently demolishing the Dothan Eagle building located on North Oates and Troy Street. Part of the building is on the ground.

The Dothan Eagle stopped the printing presses and erminated the printing staff moving that to Opelika. So all editions of the Dothan Eagle are now printed and shipped back to Dothan. They no longer print 7 days and only print 3 days. So with those changes it drasatically reduced the number of employee and the large office buildings were no longer needed.

The offices of the Dothan Eagle were moved to the Wells Fargo Building towner on the west side of Ross Clark Circle. The City of Dothan purchased the main building of the Dothan Eagle on the west side of North Oates Street and the single story building on the eastside of North Oates. These buildings are part of the master plan established under former Dothan City Manager Kevin Cowper in 2022. And about to be history.
