You Don't Say...

I'll wager few people can identify this scene. It was taken about 100 years ago in a certain section of Richland Township. 
The road in the center is now known as Eisenhower Boulevard. Route 56 now runs across the bottom of the old photo. On the right is where Grants (now Ollie's and Main Moon) are now located. On the left is where Giant Eagle (Gee Bee) and Get Go (Gee Bee Auto Center) are now.
Back of the trees at the top right is where UPJ now stands.

    I think this is wonderful. I lived & grew up in Richland Twp on Hoyt St.
