5th Ave., Easter,'13 (LOC)

  • Edward Vielmetti said:
    The caption says "5TH AVE EASTER '13" so presumably this is 1913, not 1910.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    Edward Vielmetti: Thanks for the information. We will update the source data and reload the description.
  • marysz said:
    The Easter parade, which today starts at St. Patrick's and goes on up to about 59th Street, was more extensive when this picture was taken. The parade must have extended all the way down to the 42nd Street Library--look at the sightseers. The parade has contracted and moved uptown over the years.

City, public library, Belmont Branch construction

    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called *Book Sniffers*, and we'd love to have this added to the group! -- Seen on your photo stream. (?)

    The Belmont Branch of the Richmond Pubic Library system was the first branch built after the Main Library. The branch is located at 3100 Ellwood Avenue in the Museum District of Richmond. The branch opened on October 25, 1956. It was expanded ten years later, with the expansion opening in 1966.
