SPINDLE CENTER SCENES SPOTLIGHT
"The derelict buildings of the Goodnight Brothers (three buildings, five brothers) Wholesale Grocery Company on East Main Avenue as they appeared in a June 1985 photograph. These were among the structures demolished for a new railroad spur connecting the Southern main line tracks with the former Carolina and Northwestern line. The spur is used little, so, instead of providing homes for trendy shops or start-up businesses, the land is now largely wasted." From A Glimpse as It Passed, published 2004 by Trenton Creative Enterprises and available through our Retail Partners. 
REMOUNT ROAD, NOVEMBER 1974
"In November 1974, after hearing of pending development on Remount Road, I drove out to the eastern fringe of the city to get some pictures...of one of its last eastern rural tracts. It is hard to believe that where now is concrete, steel, hustle and bustle, there once lay pastoral scenes, a farm house, a barn, a pond, and cows." From A Glimpse as It Passed, published 2004 by Trenton Creative Enterprises and available through our Retail Partners.
