Some shots from around my city. All old photos provided by Grand Rapids Public Library, digital photo archives. I tried to repeat the photos as best as I could from memory. These are the only then and nows I have, but more historic scenery coming soon.

Awesome pics!! Thanks for sharing!

It's interesting, but I guess Sunoco must have torn down that old eye brow station at Lake and Wealthy and replaced it with the 40's style box station.

I went to the library site and looked closer at the picture. Something just didn't seem right.
There are no pumps!! Where are the pumps?

I'm taking a bit of a break, but I plan to build some more in the winter. I'm focusing on a few other projects right now, including a few real pumps.
