Then and Now

‘Then and Now’: Clement Street and Sixth Avenue

Above: The view looking northeast at the corner of Clement Street and Sixth Avenue in 1909 shows new streetcar tracks being installed, and the building on the far corner, the Palm Theater, was getting a fresh coat of paint.

The streetcar lines have come and gone and significant architectural changes have been made to the buildings on the north side of Clement Street, east of Sixth Avenue. Photo by Michael Durand.
