Before and After #6

Longfellow Square, looking East

In 1921, from Maine Memory



And by me in 2008
The only big visible difference in this one is there used to be a church on the left of the picture, on Congress St. It's funny that Joe's Smoke Shop building looks exactly the same.

  1. Missing the loss of the big trees on the left.

  2. I used to live in the rice-trelawny building on the left. My apartment was the top bay window, one flight below the top-most floor. I loved that place. Loved Portland, too. And miss it. It's great to see a photo of the old homestead.
