#FlashbackFriday with the Historical Society: Intersection of North & Newcomb, About a Century Ago


Here is week’s #FlashbackFriday with the Whitewater Historical Society!


Pictured here is the intersection of North and Newcomb Streets, looking eastwards. It was most likely taken in the 1920s or 30s. The man is identified simply as “Mr. Henderson.” The storefront to his left was a popular eastside grocery store, though the building is no longer standing. The building on the right side, as well as the house on the far left hand side, both still exist today.

Join us next week for more from the Whitewater Historical Society collections!
