1928: HAMILTON'S NEW MUNICIPAL BUILDING

FROM THIS VANTAGE POINT, THE BUILDING LOOKS ABOUT THE SAME. BUT IF YOU WENT TO THE LEFT, YOU WOULDN'T SEE A PARKING LOT AND BELIEVE ME, THE ENTIRE AREA OF 2090 GREENWOOD AVENUE CHANGED DRASTICALLY OVER THESE 70-PLUS YEARS. THE ARTICLE REFERS TO THE LIBRARY WHICH WAS IN THE BASEMENT. I REMEMBER IT WELL. IN FACT, WHEN I FIRST GOT MARRIED IN THE EARLY 50'S IT WAS A SHORT WALK FROM MY FAIRLAWN GARDENS APARTMENT AT 212 MASSACHUSETTS AVENUE.
