Burlington Streets: Willard Street

Image

Date Created: 1940-10-29
Description: October 29, 1940. This view shows the sidewalk improvement by the Burlington Street Dept. under construction at a point opposite All Saints' Chapel on South Willard Street opposite the Texaco Filling Station. Note the forms being placed for reconstructing the concrete steps leading to the Chapel, also the large amount of grading and excavating being done on the area between the new sidewalk and the curb; also the terrace back of the sidewalk. The dark area in the foreground is resurfacing of the shoulder of the street where the curb had been reset and the street widened in front of the old house which for many years obstructed the view at this point and extended into the street several feet causing an angle in the curb at this point. This house was removed to provide for the new Shell Filling Station.
