Then and Now Asked When? Winner

Yes, a Patch Then and Now regular was the one who came closest to identifying the date we have for the traffic at Monument and Humphrey.

 

 

Then and Now asks when? What year was this photo taken? 

Then and Now stalwart Paul Sherry answered 1952.

Local hisotrian Lou Gallo told us he believes the photo was taken in 1954.

Paul came closest to identifying the correct year for the question.

Congratulations Paul.

We'll keep the Then and Now feature going by posting another image of a historic house or location on Monday.
