|  Can you name the location? corner of State & Main Comments... Posted: 04/23/2001 Posted: 04/23/2001 Comments... Compare this view with #261 from 4/20. This one is several weeks later. The building on the right in this view is in the background of #261. The building next to it in #261 has been demolished in this view. Posted: 04/24/2001 Comments... Wrong--the empty lot in foreground is now City Hall Posted: 04/25/2001 Comments... I don't agree that the empty lot in the foreground is the site of the current city hall. Look at the street light in the foreground. It hangs out over State Street. The back side of city hall is close to the river, not on a street. What I can't remember is when the old Hunter Machine plant was torn down. I think the picture was taken from the roof of it. Posted: 04/25/2001 Comments... Empty lot is where the hotel stands now Posted: 04/28/2001 Comments... Faith & bejabbers but to be surrrre, 'tis the site of the hotel. Look straight ahead, and a bit to the right, across State St., (now American Legion Drive,) and you can see the 1st Aggie Bank building. Seeing all of the awnings in the down position, on the front of the Boston Store, (the "white" building in the center of ther pic,) reminds me of the old promo for that side of the street. "ON THE SUNNY SIDE OF THE STREET!" Rusty Posted: 01/30/2003 Comments... Nearest empty lot where old Richmond theatre stood and across the street lot is where the old Cuttings store stood and McCraw & Tatro department stores.I saw Snow Whitw and the seven dwarfs at the old Richmond and many, many weekend chapter movies for nickles and dimes. Posted: 02/03/2004 Comments... Ah these photos make me sad. I wish they had never torn down the beautiful old buildings. The heart of North Adams is forever gone. Posted: 02/03/2004 Comments... Old Richmond Hotel, Beloins Jewelryetc. Continuing down the street not shown light only, was where the old fire staion, police station, train station, LeVesques barber shop, Paul was a fireman then and later took over his dads barber shop, chinese lawndry etc. Way back I carried lunches for Paul and his dad for .50 cents each a week.
