Historic Photo of the Week: 1941
Featured, History — By Thatcher Imboden on June 23, 2012 1:23 pmFrom February 1941, we are looking west on 36th Street towards Lyndale Avenue. Hudson Terraplane, 709 West 36th Street, is today home to Parent’s Auto Care. Parent’s opened in 1949 at another location but eventually moved into this building in 1978, which was had been home to an A.M.C Rambler dealership.

I love signs like the Hudson Terraplane.

How cities work and change, how they are the product of their inhabitants and outside forces, and the resulting livability keep me thinking and dreaming about the future. I work in urban real estate development, am Past President of an Uptown business organization, grew up in Uptown, was on an Uptown neighborhood association Board, and am an Uptown and Lyn-Lake historian.
