Commercial Avenue View

West at Washington
Looking west from the intersection of Commercial Avenue and Washington Street in Lowell, this was the scene, circa 1900. There was a business at the site of the present 'triangle park' between Washington and Commercial Avenue -- the larger building seen there was the office of John Love and A.S. Hull, partners in a hay business. The large barn in the upper right was the William Love hay barn, with attached horsebarn, on the south side of Washington St. near the railroad tracks. William Love's office is on the south side of Commercial Avenue, to the left in the photo. The building in the foreground is a construction shack, and the two homes owned by William Love can be seen nestled in the trees near the hay barn
