This late 1940s postcard photo, probably taken from an upper floor of the Kuhn and Shankweiler building shows Hamilton Street looking west from Center Square to Ninth Street. Note the new postwar vehicles on Hamilton Street, as well as the mixture of streetcar and bus traffic by Lehigh Valley Transit. The new Whelan Pharmacy building, on the northwest corner became a landmark on Center Square for decades, before being raised in 2013.
