Bowling Green, Kentucky

A pictorial essay

by Ben T. Runner, Jr.



A view looking up Main St. from College St.


The old Central Fire Station



The fountain in the square before the city painted it black.



Spray paint on a building on Main St.



Looking down on Subletts Barber Shop on Main St.



One night while looking in the front doors of the Central Fire Station I caught this fireman.


A look in the Odd Fellows building at night



A pool hall on College St.



Looking up Park Row from College to State St.



The Elks Club fire.



A sunset over the 31-W bypass when it was the main strip.
