Shrewsbury Street 1
This is the north end of Shrewsbury St. You can see what is
now the Farmers Market to the left.
The house behind the trailer was one of the earliest built wood
houses in the area. It was divided
into 2 apartments and I lived in the bottom one in 1956 when I started
school at Mercer. I later
moved around the corner to Smith St. "Jimbos Eggs" took
over the old building in front sometime
in the early 60s. Shrewsbury St had several house trailers
on it. These were finally banned by the
city sometime around Urban Renewal. "Brittons Chicken House"
was in the alley behind this area.
