Canal Street, 1915

|

Another postcard that's really too small of a scan to be a "feature photo." This is Canal Street around 1915. The photographer is standing on Canal, in between St. Charles and Carondelet. You can see the "new" MB building in the background.

The streetcars are "Palace" cars of the New Orleans City Railroad Company. At this time, the NOCRR ran the "Palace" cars and the New Orleans & Carrollton Railroad Company was beginning to try out a new semi-convertible from the St. Louis Car Company, designed by Mr. Perley A. Thomas.
