Endangered Durham on Break for the Week
GK is taking a break from Endangered Durham this week to catch up on a plentitude of things. ED will return next week. In the meantime, feel free to check out the ~400 or so existing posts. I continue to spend a lot of time updating old posts with new pictures as I get them.
A few of the new pics:
A higher resolution picture of the 5 points drug company, and a new 1940s view of the same spot
Pictures of the demolition of the Geer Building
Two new pictures of the YWCA on West Chapel Hill St.
A new picture of the original Immaculate Conception on West Chapel Hill St.
A new picture of the original Second Baptist/Temple Baptist
A new picture of the 200 block of East Chapel Hill St.
New pictures of Harvey's Cafeteria
The former Blayloc as both Hall-Wynne and (later) The Durham Bowling Alley
The Demolition of Belk-Leggett
A better old picture of "Ringside"
A movie of people eating at The Palms
A 1981 picture of the Durham Hosiery Mills No. 1, prior to renovation
A long sought-after picture of the interior of Union Station
A movie of kids roller-skating in front of the First Baptist Church during the 1930s
That's just a smattering of the pictures I've been adding over the past weeks/months (with more to come.)

What?! Wearing yourself out doing an in-depth history of a structure and/or streetscape daily? Anyone within a normal 35-hour day could easily do such a thing ...
