Sight #9: Former Morrison Building #rephotoMultco

Then and now

Photograph looking diagonally across a stoplight intersection at a nondescript two-story office building. Two men stand talking on the sidewalk next to a small parking lot with several vehicles.

Another rephotography opportunity!

This image was taken at 2:30 pm on September 21, 1961. It captures the view from the southwest corner of the intersection of SE Morrison St. and SE 20th Ave. Today, if you look northeast from the same spot, you won't see the building that appears in the picture. That building was the Morrison Building. You'll learn a little more about it at the next step.

For now, take a picture of what you do see from the intersection and share it with us.Tag us @MultCoArchives using #rephotoMultco.
