Hamilton Street looking west from Center Square, probably in the spring of 1928. Note the PP&L building that still has its external construction elevator attached to the east side of the building. It will open to the public on July 16, 1928. Many of the buildings visible in this image will still be in use in the 2000s and 2010s; the ones along the north side of Hamilton between 7th and 8th streets will be torn down in 2013 as part of the One City Center/PPL Arena construction project.
