A t a recent parks meeting in the North End, residents were discussing how to mobilize efforts around fixing up the Prado when Mark Petrigno showed the group 1970′s photos on his camera of the Paul Revere Mall park.  I asked him to send over some of his photos to share in the gallery shown below. Mark is a lifelong North Ender and currently owns the Connah Store on Hanover & Parmenter Streets. [Click on the thumbnail images to enlarge and start slideshow]

The Historical Photos gallery has also been restored so take a look there for more old photos. We are always looking for more photographs, so feel free to email your old snapshots to info@northendwaterfront.com (please include dates!).
