This postcard from about 1915 shows the south side of Hamilton Street between Center Square and Sixth Street. Shown are H. Leh & Company, the department store founded by Henry Leh in 1850; the Lehigh Valley Trust Company building, erected in 1911 and the Shankweiler & Lehr men's clothing store. The Tallman's Cafe is between Leh's and Lehigh Valley Trust. Note the pool hall which is on the second floor. The overhead utility lines on Hamilton Street are not yet fully buried underground. That was completed by the time of the US entry into World War I.
