Focusing on a corner in Logansport, Indiana, which was at one time a bank along the Wabash & Erie Canal.
The canal was dried up in 1875.
In 1922 a large automobile service station was built on this corner. It was said to be the largest of its kind in the area.
North Street would be at the right in this photo. The building across the street - North Street - still stands. It was the Elk Lodge.
August 17, 1922 Logansport Pharos Tribune clipping:
