- Description:
- Composite of four photographs. This portion of the 200 block included a Firestone tire store, National China Company, Opera House Hat Cleaners, and MacLauglin's Music Company. City Planning Division staff trimmed four photographs for this composite view. Several of the image pieces are still affixed to each other. Because the separate pieces do not match perfectly, gaps have intentionally been left in the composition. City Planning Division staff placed sequential numbers at the bottom of each piece: "C6", and "C7". Note that this composite and item 2015-06-003.V5.030 omit coverage of the Palms/Downtown Arts Theatre; it can be seen in other views including 2015-06-003.V2.009; 2015-06-003.V5.012; and 2015-06-003.V5.032.

- Description:
- Mohawk Tire Sales was at 418-420 North Washington Avenue. The building to the left, that is, north, is thought to be Bradley's Lounge based on the 1958 City Directory. No signs, however, are legible in the photo. Three doors are seen below a sign, "Entrance to Dancing." The city directory describes the Lounge as a beer garden with no mention of dancing, nor is dancing mentioned anywhere else in the area.
