Scope and content
By October of 1941, the first phase of the 6th Avenue "face lift" was complete. The "jog" in the road at Sixth and Pine had been ironed out, eliminating a traffic bottleneck. The street had been widened and repaved. On the left is Central Bank (2816 6th Ave) and on the left is the Sixth Ave. Market (2809 6th Ave.) and Applings (2815 6th Ave.) The neon sign for the Sixth Ave. Bowling Center (2807 6th Ave.) can be seen in the right foreground.
