This area has, for the most part, remained the same over the years. The two biggest landmarks in the area are a park on the north side of Linwood, and a high school on the south side. Smaller buildings around the edges of the blocks have come and gone as the years have gone by.
What I found most interesting about the area changing was the fact that, around 1925, when a street was added in the middle area. Monroe Avenue was extended from 31st street (where it originally ended) to Linwood Blvd. What makes this development even more interesting? The street was gone again by 1958! I thought it was fascinating that something as major as a street lasted less than forty years.
