East Judd looking toward N. Benton ca 1954

Description

Snow has fallen in this next photo--probably taken the same day as the other in the series.

The photographer stood on the tracks at the intersection of E. Judd and Jefferson streets looking toward the building on N. Benton. Good closeup of a railroad crossing signal (or at least a rail crossing since the road is missing).Good view of 207/209 N. Benton, the alley, and the garage door for Merwin's furniture store.
