Last edition’s Where Am I?

Hopefully as the weather turns warm everybody will visit our local parks. Nobody guessed the toes on the statue of children reading included in our last Where Am I? challenge. This cute statue can be found in the Bill Jessee Park in the Riverfront community in Harbor View. Find this month’s challenge on page 21.

BUSINESS BLOCK: The main business block of Washington Street took the name Washington Square. This area suffered terrible fires in 1885 and 1888, so most of the buildings shown were built after that time. Some of Suffolk’s oldest and finest businesses were on that block as was the office that produced this postcard.
