|
|
- Date:
- 1943-05-05
- Description:
- This historic photograph shows workers on Main St., in between S. Winooski Ave. and Church St., removing the rails for the former trolley system. In the left side of the picture, one can see a sign for Brown's Drugs in front of the U.S. Post Office and Customs House. Further down the street one can see a sign for a restaurant reading "SEAFOOD," the Flynn Theatre advertising "My Friend Flicka," and the Vermont Motel behind it. Across the street, behind a few onlookers of the rail removal, one can see the Christian Science Reading Room and the Federal Savings & Loan Association next door. In the foreground there is a pickax and shovel lying in the street. Several vehicles can be seen parked along the street. A few pedestrians on the sidewalk appear to be watching the road work.
