Neighborhood View of the Day
After posting this odd angle of Lincoln Wharf’s construction, I promised to post another view from that early 1900’s set. This one shows the framing around the smoke stack of the power station (plus some railcars on Commercial Street). Thanks to a NEWF fan for sharing this scanned photo.
