44 Warren St., Salem, MA 01970
This photo is a little before my time, but looks very similar to when I was a kid. We used to go to that CVS and Crosby's all the time. In fact, we'd climb up the hill behind the CVS and pass through the apartment building parking lot at the top on our way back to Langdon St. I have scoped that area out recently, and it is no longer really open for that kind of passage! This photo looks like it was taken from the driveway of 45 Warren St.

Gallows Hill, Salem, MA
This is the photo that blew my mind! Seeing that huge factory in the park I grew up in totally shifted my understanding of the area. Langdon St is in the foreground, the old Salem High School (now Collins Middle School) is in the background. I tried to place the pin where it looks like the photo was taken from.
30 Church St., Salem, MA
Central Fire Station in 1897. What happened to the homes next door? Looks like they were taken down or moved to make room for the parking lot.
30 Church St., Salem, MA
This photo was taken in 1968. The fire station moved out in 1976. By the time I was a kid in Salem, this was where Ted Cole's Music store was located. I remember going there to buy resin for my Cello bow in the 80s.
The Pickering House, 18 Broad St, Salem, MA 01970
Pickering House. I've walked by this house thousands of times but have never been inside. I remember reading about Pickering in Chernow's biography of George Washington and thinking, "Hey! I know that house!"
Gallows Hill, Salem, MA
Photo of the Great Salem Fire in June, 1914. Taken from Gallows Hill with 21, 23, 24 & 25 Proctor St visible in the distance. I tried to put the map pin roughly where I think this photo was taken.
