A policeman directs traffic at Bay Street and Sidney Avenue in the 1940s. On the left is Blanchard’s Department Store.
The same intersection today has traffic lights, but the Blanchard’s Department Store building is still standing and is now home to an antiques store.
Happy Anniversary Port Orchard!
