Subject: [PRCo] PRC 1697 on Fineview
Thought you guys might like to look at this photo from the 1960s that shows a FINEVIEW car about to turn from Warren into Catoma St. It was one of the almost level spots up on that hillside. I think we can date it to summer of 1959- summer of 1963 based on the 59 Chevy Bel Air and the lack of a PAT decal on the car.
Jack May, who circulated it, wrote, "Fabulous photo of 21-Fineview PCC by John Aurelius."
I would add that by looking at Bing Maps, I discovered that the house to the left has been expanded. The rear porch has been enclosed creating more rooms and more on the second floor were added above the porch and the original bath.
OK, Encartis. Here you are. Go 'head an eat it......"
