...This
view appears to be
towards the northeast , from perhaps the Bromo Tower
(?)
. You can clearly see the Tower Building in the
background.
Much of what is seen in this picture has been torn
down over the years. Picture is circa 1914. |
| ...Looking
west along Baltimore Street towards the southwest,
from perhaps the Tower Building. You can see the Sun
Building
in the center of the photo and in the background, the
Bromo
Building, with the giant bottle of Bromo of top of it. |

...Looking
towards the Southeast
, at Baltimore's harbor back in the 1950's. The concept
of
Charles Center and the Inner Harbor had not yet come to
reality.
The park on the left side of the picture is Preston
Gardens,
on the lower right is the Baltimore Gas & Electric
building,
and in the center, the Art Deco Maryland
National Bank building. |

Not sure what block number, but it
appears
to be Baltimore Street or Howard Street in downtown
Baltimore. |
| Baltimore Street ?
Howard Street ? Suggestions ???? |

I believe this view is east on
Fayette
Street from Charles Street. The building in the center
appears to be the old Post Office building. The building on the left is the Baltimore Circuit Court Building. |
| ..East on Baltimore
Street , from Charles Street . Looks like the Bank of
Baltimore building on the right, and the Tower
Building
in the center. |

From the area of Fayette
and Charles, or so we believe. |

.Baltimore's
Lexington Street Shopping
District - 1950's. The area has changed a lot over the years, and the street was made into a " mini - mall ". There are plans in the works to redo the entire area, with the old Read's store on the right side of the picture part of the renovation plans, as well as that entire block. |

......... .............................................. A look towards the East from the general area of the Baltimore Civic Center-circa 1930's |
............. .............As Charles Center goes up, much of the older sections of Baltimore get torn down. This view shows Charles Center being built, looking East from the area of the Civic Center towards Light Street, just south of Baltimore Street. This shows the building of the Mechanic Theatre, which was recenty torn down |
