Street Paving in Keene New Hampshire

from Keene Public Library and the Historical Society of Cheshire County

• RileyHammond said:

  So is this a picture of the first paving that was done in this area? That would be a momentous occasion to be at the first paving event in the area. I bet they were super happy to drive cars around once it was all finished. Thanks for the photo, its fun to look through historical photos.

• Keene Public Library and the Historical Society of Cheshire County said:

  I'm not sure if it was the first paving, but it could have been. There is no information on that with the photo. But what a shame that they ever tore down the Cheshire House, eh?
