Black and white photo image of Chillicothe Street. Marting Brothers at 515 Chillicothe, United Woolen at 513, Beis Brothers at 511, Charles Wenten Shoes and Men's Clothing in the distance, Bragdon's Dry Goods at 405 Chillicothe. Also shown: street car, people, and wagon and J. F. Carr, Jeweler.
The image on the left is looking north on Chillicothe Street from Third (3rd). In about the center of the photograph is a three-story building with dormer windows on the roof. This is the Grand Opera House built in 1895. It suffered damage from a fire in 1914 and was rebuilt to be used by the Kresge dime or ten cent store for many years. The date "1890" is a typo error.
The one on the right is the same scene in 1980 when the Kresge store looks white.
