The photos above are of Shawmut Avenue in the South End. The top left was taken in 1974 and the second shows the same stretch of the street back in 2012.
Usually when I post photos in my flashback series there are stark changes. What I love about this photograph from the Boston Globe library is how little has changed. The South End has retained its charm although we no longer see wheel barrels being rolled down Shawmut Avenue.
