Centered is the house of George and Gertrude (Gerty) Revis. George started one of the areas first private trash collection businesses, one of those trucks can be seen in the pic. As a teen in the 1950s one of my uncles worked for him when they were collecting trash in open topped dump trucks. My Mother's family lived next door to the right. Revis also was a pioneer of residential driveway paving.
The building at right was a converted hay barn, by 1968 it was home to Brownie Tool Works, currently home to Royce Machine.
