Intersection of Westport & Pennsylvania

Photograph of the intersection of Westport Road and Pennsylvania Avenue circa 1923. Wiedenmann Brothers Grocery Store, at 500 Westport Road, can be seen on the northwest corner of the intersection, and Doerschuk's Prescription Drug Store, at 501 Westport, is on the southwest corner. Signs reading "Mogul Overalls" hang on the building at 433 Westport, on the southeast corner, which was the home to Klein's clothing store. The northeast corner, a vacant lot at the time of the photo, was the original location of the pre-Civil War Harris-Kearney House, a hotel and later a private home, which was moved to a location several blocks away in 1922. It was replaced by a commercial building shortly thereafter.
