Description
ANSWER: Shown in the photo is the E Building at the Hollenbeck Home for the Aged. Situated at 573 S Boyle Ave., the home is on a site that once was the residence of Mr. and Mrs. John E. Hollenbeck. That was in the 1860s. In 1895, more than 20 years before her death, the widowed Mrs. Hollenbeck founded and endowed the home. The building shown in the photo was built in 1918. KNOW YOUR CITY, NO.119 -- All of the old-timers who know the city inside out and are such prolific letter writers will undoubtedly recognize this. Thousands of others, however will be stumped. It has history. But it's not a mission. See Page 37, Part l.
