you're welcome City Streets!

yea, if you take a look at Image 8A (the 1st Image 8A). It's called the West End Trust Building. I am 99% sure that the building occupied the spot where the Old Meridian aka. Fidelity Mutual, aka Girard Bank Building once stood. Now, Of course Residences of the Ritz (RATR). The reason I say this is because I can almost remember when I was in my childhood, my Dad brought me in town for whatever reason, and we stopped and looked at the demolition of that very building. Did I mention that I am almost as old ?, ever hear the expression "you've been around since Broad St was a prairie! So I think I may have answered your other question, Was Broad St comprised of a dirt surface? Anyway, Im glad you enjoyed and thanks for starting the thread.
