Main Street in the 40's

I had a lot of material to weed through since most of the articles from the 40's revolved around the docks and businesses on the water. I did manage to find some stuff about businesses on the main streets but not much information, they were mostly references to the locations.

Wrecking Corp. of America – Pennington Ave Extension
