This c. 1966 photo looks north on South Bunker Hill Avenue, with 251 SBH the first house on the left and the

By the time this photo was taken on June 10, 1966, 245 South Bunker Hill was the only house remaining on the
west side of the street:

Remarkable series of photos. Fascinating to see the "old" juxtaposed with the the "new." The overhead street lamp appears to be similar if not the same as so many that were installed some fifty years prior to the date of these circa '66 images. Can just imagine the garish illumination it provided to that part of the street supplemented by each residence's lighting. How wonderfully noirish.
