Yard work in progress at a home on Goettingen near Mansell circa 1950. Let’s unpack this view. The gas storage tanks in the distance are at Army (now Cesar Chavez) and Evans, and Pennsylvania and 23rd. Mt. Joseph’s Orphanage is visible on the tree-lined hill. And the Kroehler Manufacturing Building at the right still stands at 1485 Bayshore Blvd. Much of the land in the immediate background was cleared for the Bayshore Freeway.
