Description
Title supplied by cataloger.
4th Street, looking west, showing the "new" Grand Avenue pedestrian crossing. Construction appears to be complete, except for possible landscaping. Two staircases, joined by a landing, get pedestrians from a lower street to an upper one, possibly 4th Street. A building at the top of the stairs reads, "4th & Grand Service Garage" with the Biltmore Apartments directly across. Other apartment houses, no longer standing, are visible in the surrounding area. Photograph dated May 2, 1956.; One of two photographs documenting the site. For an earlier view, see image #00092842.
