City Hall, Another Main Street

There is a new City Hall here replacing this one. But that’s not the story of ‘Main Street’. It is the entire street, and economy around it.

Metal fence blocks the street, it’s busy, but it’s cars passing through going somewhere else.

I chose to photograph this since the towns most famous resident just may run for US president after this election.

I wonder if she drives through the old main street on any visits home.

Walk Around Old ‘Main Street’

This is not something we can blame on a lock down, or any one thing at all.

There are some that have, more that do not. It’s becoming more obvious as time goes on.

That’s as political as this site gets.

Photographs of another small town ‘main street’ that doesn’t really exist any longer.

 

A Barber Shop, Main Street USA

A bit rough around the edges yet I bet this is the place to find out what really is happening here.

When younger in NYC I went to a friends shop, on 5th avenue, and had my hair cut. I also had my wallet emptied. It was a hair cut, nothing more.

Later in life I went to a small town barber. He was 300 years old, gave me his ‘regular’, and it was again a hair cut. I left with money in my pocket, had much more interesting conversations, I even got to read the original Life Magazines from the 1950’s he still had on the table.

There is something important here that will probably be lost soon.
