Mysteries solved!
A couple weeks ago we posted photos from Asheville and Hickory. Several of you wrote in to tell us that the location in photo 148 looks a lot like the corner of Patton Avenue and College Street as seen below.
Readers informed us, too, the old Carolina Natural Gas Corp. building in photo 164 still stands on 1st Avenue in Hickory but houses another company.
