EAST END AT ELK
The photos below are part of a huge aerial photo that
you may click-on at the end of this page
This is another of my favorite photos
because it shows so much detail and how things have really changed
in this area. For instance, the Municipal Auditorium is under
construction in the lower right corner, which places this photo at
1939. The new Blvd is about a mile long. Notice all the empty
lots, especially near the Blvd and Clendennin Streets. |
Moving down a bit we again see the
Municipal Auditorium and the county courthouse and city hall.
Now it gets interesting again: Notice
that all the buildings that used to set on the river side of the Blvd
are still there. This is because the Blvd only stretches from Court
Street to Delaware Ave at this point. See the large photo for more. |
