I find this postcard to be unusual for the era in that it doesn't show the Memorial Building in a straight on view, as most seem to do. Instead, we get a scene of two landmarks in one- the Mem and the Nicolet Monument, as seen from the intersection of Riverway and Keyes Street.

What a wonderful sketch. Anyone know why the monument now has fewer steps?
ReplyDeleteWas the monument moved closer to the corner intersection at some point?
