• This picture is from between 1887 and 1898 as the C&H Library building hadn't been built yet but the original C&H Admin building was (minus the latter addition). Notice the original (wooden) Washington school in the foreground but the HS wasn't built yet (1907). Also notice that School street went all the way to Mine street in those days.
