Interestingly (at least to me) these 'Main Street between Sixth and Seventh' images are archived with the notation that they chronicle 'undesirable businesses and vacant lots'. Now I don't consider these businesses undesirable in any way and I'm confident neither did the owners nor their patrons. As for 'vacant lots' I don't see any. I see several well maintained and well utilized parking lots, which the civic center movers and shakers would sweep across great swaths of the city a decade after these pics were taken, so in their thinking parking lots, per se, weren't a bad thing unless, of course they didn't fit with their grand planning.
Main Street between Sixth & Seventh, 1941, to a fair thee well.
