Hi, my name is Carol, ?Becky is?my
dau.in.law and?my wonderful computer Guru?.? I took that picture
of Congress, I would say, about 1943-44.? Note the two young men in uniform
just behind the man with his head down.? You can see the Fox?Theater
further down the street?(west). I'm?anxious to see the Fox once it's
restored and open for business.? Note the shoe store across the street - do
you remember that leather shoes were rationed to twice a year for
adults?

Street Photo, and barbeque...
Hi All,
Thanks for adding the great picture.?
To me, it looks like it is
Congress facing west, taken from the south side
of the street.? If so,
then the building on the left would be what is
now the "Chicago
Store".? There is a folder of Chicago Store pictures
in the Photos
section.
I'll check my 1948 business directory for
Barbeque joints next week,
and post a list.? Yum.? Good incentive
to go take photos for my
"research", heh, heh.
