Description
Postcard depicting an artist rendition overlooking New York Avenue. Along the dirt road are buildings, some businesses while other appear to be homes in the distance. The first building on the right is the building of contractor, N.F. Bass. Next to which is the Makinson store, selling hardware, furniture, and building materials. Makinson Hardware was originally a family owned store that started in Kissimmee, and opened a new location in St. Cloud. The Kissimmee store is still open today. In the distance is East Lake Tohopekaliga. Along the top of the postcard says "New York Avenue, Looking to Late, St. Cloud, Florida." On the back of the postcard is a handwritten message addressed to Arthur S. Hanson at 26 [Mck] St of Haverhill, Massachusetts. The message reads, "[...] daily only so Arthur please write on a ceratin day each week so I will know [first] - what day to look for my letter. Love mother".
