Description
Photograph of a view of Ocean Park Boulevard looking east from Amherst Avenue after construction, June 21, 1940. Freshly paved Ocean Park Boulevard extends into the distance from the foreground at right. An open field can be seen along the side of the road at right, and a row of light-colored houses is at left. More houses are visible in the distance at center, and a row of utility poles runs parallel to the road at left. Two early-model automobiles are driving on the road in the background. Compares to CHS-14446, which shows the same streets before paving.
