  Distillery Street is still there!

• National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:

  Niall McAuley Adding "loosely" onto Distillery Street, thank you!

• Niall McAuley said:

  That's the huge brick chimney at right, I think we are looking South.

• derangedlemur said:

  I wouldn't rule out south but the shadows look more as if we're looking east.

• derangedlemur said:

  Distillery street seems to be named for the Royal Irish Distillery (judging by the map), which according to the internet included the Dunville brand.

  Its amazing the sheer depth and quality in this photo and a lot of the collection. You should all be very proud getting this on to the net, and more so for being net-savvy enough to use flickr as well as your own site.

  I am from the Chattanooga area, and this place still exists, although I am sure it's under a different name. It is cool to see something like this and know EXACTLY where it took place!

  Aha! After a fair amount of research, I figured out exactly where the shop is. Looks like the original building is still standing (satellite photo).

• iris.schimandle said:

  Again, shop is not at Proviso and is therefore in Chicago rather than Melrose Park.

• dsblack said:

  The "giant hammer" tagged by "Shmoovio (Jarrett)" looks like a pulley lift with a big hook.
