Description

Black-and-White nitrate negative of the intersection of Main and River Streets. The former site of the Riverside Hotel is an open field, and a sign mounted on a post reads, "this site to be used for village park." There are children playing on the site, and 1930s-era cards line the streets. A Texaco sign is visible on the left corner of the intersection, and houses on Kiwassa Road can be seen in the distance. Was in envelope marked, "Saturday October 12, 1935. Riverside from Town Hall." Photograph may have been taken by William Kollecker, or for Kollecker's studio.
