This Date in History - September 7, 1917

The following ad appeared in the West Riverside Daily Press:

Pumping plant  with abundance of water: fine soft soil. Six room house wth hot and cold water. West Riverside on Fourth Street between B and C sts., near car line.

Fourth Street is now 24th Street, B Street is now Rubidoux Boulvard, and C street is now Hall Avenue, placing this property in what we now think of as the community of Belltown.
