Main Street, Bangor, Maine, circa 1903-1905

The very busy intersection of Main Street, Hammond Street, and Central Street in Bangor, Maine circa 1903-1905. Narrowing into this date range possible by consulting Bangor city directories. Fox & Adams Wholesale and Retail Confectioners had moved to Exchange Street by 1905. Allan P. Trask / Watches, Clocks, Jewelry first appeared at this location on Main Street in the 1905 directory. It is possible Trask\u27s moved into this location in 1903 after the city directory for that year had been published. Photograph well-worth zooming in. A woman sits an umbrella in an open window above Confectionery Manufactory. The tower of Bangor City Hall on Columbia Street looms above this woman.
