There are several buildings that by the 21st century no longer existed in this view.
It is an interesting view over the city and the Acushnet River with Fairhaven in the distance.
The front of the school was on Summer Street, the back of the school was facing Chestnut Street, the sides were Mill and North Streets.
Today, the current Holy Name School is at 91 Summer Street. |
