• This image was taken from in front of Hancock's original fire hall which stood at the east end of Quincy Street at Reservation. The materials stacked in front of the building and the removed to" sign in the window lead me to believe that this photo was taken in 1890 and the building is about to be transformed into the Superior Savings Bank. See MS042-999-T-31 for a good view of the new look. The post office was located here in the 1880s with Morton L. Cardell of Holland, Cardell & Co. serving as postmaster."
