June 1942. "Florence, Alabama (Tennessee Valley Authority). Saturday afternoon." Acetate negative by Arthur Rothstein for the U.S. Foreign Information Service. View full size.
I feel like we've seen this corner before?
Anyone else under that impression?
Comparing the Google street view from June this year (top) to the one from May 2019 shows that the past is being uncovered.
We are looking at the NW corner of W Mobile and N Court Streets. The Majestic Theater, at 202 N Court, is gone and the windows and door on the ground floor of the First National Bank have been bricked up. Also, the city of Florence no longer designates its parallel parking spaces with a stripe that has a bulb at one end (like a thermometer) and runs up onto the sidewalk.
Yes, KathyRo, another photograph of this intersection was posted in March 2008.
