Opinion
CORNELIUS, Justice.
For the purpose of widening and reconstructing two streets, appellant City of Tex-arkana condemned .64 acres and took a temporary “working easement” over 25,406 additional square feet out of a 16.47 acre tract of land owned by appellee Kitty Wells, Inc. After objections to the award of the commissioners, the cause was tried before a jury which awarded appellee $83,-196.00 for the land taken, including the temporary easement, and found that the remainder of appellee’s land (a shopping center) had been diminished in value by $50,000.00 as a result of the taking.
