Another Aerial Photo from the 1930s
Here's another aerial photo. This one was taken a few years after the shot I recently posted and, like the first, looks northward over the city-- probably around 1937. Note the roads on the flower side of the lake have been laid in. There are quite a few houses now. Memorial Drive can be seen in the upper middle, with Hambrick intersecting from the north. None of the roads seem to be paved.
The chapel (now City Hall) and beach house have not yet been built. The clubhouse is just out of view at lower right; we know it's there because it was present the early aerial shot. Check out the dock at the base of Spring Street.
