This photo (west of 35th Street) shows the ROW's towers quite well: 
(http://www.loc.gov/pictures/resource/fsa.8b28618/).
This photo of the Interurban ROW contains an erroneous caption that says 
it is CNW's ROW instead... 
(http://www.loc.gov/pictures/resource/fsa.8b28625/).

Pigsville with the Wells trestle 
(http://www.loc.gov/pictures/resource/fsa.8b28628/). Its housing looked 
much this this some 22 years afterward, coming home from MUHS.

Could this be Hibernia 
(http://www.loc.gov/pictures/resource/fsa.8b28642/) and 
(http://www.loc.gov/pictures/resource/fsa.8b28643/)?

Another photo of Hibernia, but with an erroneous caption 
(http://www.loc.gov/pictures/resource/fsa.8b28645/).

Yet another shot of Hibernia 
(http://www.loc.gov/pictures/resource/fsa.8b28648/).

This is ground zero to what I thought was the worst slum left around 
1960, but it seemed nice during 1936.
