1941: 2104 NOTTINGHAM WAY

This 71 year old photo is a graphic and fascinating look at the rural character of Hamilton Township's Nottingham Way. The mailbox seen in the photo says "Reeves - 2104," which would make this scene the location between the mini shopping center on Nottingham Way and the U.S. Army Reserve complex. At the age of 8, I would not have been familiar with this strange enviornment; especially when one considers how the 2012 Nottingham Way landscape has changed over these 71 years.

It is between the Stryker Army Reserve Bldg & Klockner Rd.

THANKS FOR KEEPING ME HONEST, "ANONYMOUS." FURTHER INVESTIGATION FINDS THAT 2104 WOULD HAVE BEEN ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE STREET AS I ORIGINALLY INDICATED, AND BETWEEN THAT MINI SHOPPING CENTER AND THE U.S. ARMY RESERVE CENTER. I HAVE CHANGED MY INCORRECT ENTRY. (ACTUALLY THE GOOGLE EARTH VIEW SHOWS THAT 2104 WOULD HAVE BEEN BEFORE REACHING THE STRYKER ARMY RESERVE BLDG. AND KLOCKNER ROAD.)

Tom;

Bing and Google maps leave a lot to be desired. The house pictured still stands there. There was an older stock car driver that lived either in that house or next door to that location.. His name escapes me right now. Might have been Wally Marx or Marks. It is across from the Red White & Thrift Store.
