Fitchner Pool

VJ Repeat - Fitchner Pool along Sheridan Street in the West End - behind Garfield Junior High (now the middle school). The pool is long gone along with most of the buildings.

Washington Street - 1860's

VJ Repeat - with a lot new readers coming aboard - thought I'd repost one of my favorites from the 1860's. I post this picture from time to time - simply because I like it. This is probably one of the earliest photographs that you'll ever see of a very early look at Downtown Johnstown. The iron industry was just beginning to take off. This is a section of Washington Street.
