| per an email from David Muskat, 6/2/11: "The view of image 35101 is looking South East. The tree line running parallel to the left side of the rectangle patterned road is Regent Street. Franklin Avenue runs diagonally across image 35101 beginning at the upper right hand corner of the photo. The lone farm house shown in the upper right hand corner of the photo still stands at the intersection of Franklin Avenue and Hillcrest Drive. Bluff Street runs diagonally across image 35101 beginning near the lower right hand corner of the photo, along the north edge of Hoyt Park, ending at the intersection of Ridge Street (which can be seen running parallel to Franklin Avenue and disappearing into the wing of the airplane). The clearing seen in the middle of the right hand edge of the photo is the meadow at Hoyt Park, where the shelter house has not yet been built. Bluff Street does not yet connect to Kendall Avenue, and there are no streets at all between Franklin Avenue and Ridge Street. Looking at the streets east of Franklin Avenue starting from the left edge of the photo and moving right, you can see a little piece of Stevens Street, then Kendall Avenue, and Chamberlain Avenue. Looking at the upper left hand corner of the photo, you can see the streets running parallel to Franklin Avenue on its east side (Farley Avenue, Grand Avenue, and Highland Avenue). The two streets running west off of Ridge Street are Stevens Street (running parallel to the wing of the airplane) and McKinely Street." |
