JCCC Archives presents the Sleuthing Series, where every Tuesday, we bring you an image from our past and ask you to help us find out more!
What We Know
This picture is from 1980. In the background is the intersection of 111th Street and Quivira Road. That large building is still there, but the home (far right, in trees) is gone. If you enlarge the image, you can see trailers between them, likely indicating construction.
What We Don’t Know
- When did 111th become College Blvd?
(We know, but do you?) - Were the kites for a class project?
- What did the construction mentioned above become?
- What month is this?
If You Know More…
- Contact librarians: Anita Gordon Gilmore (agordong@jccc.edu, ext. 4369) or John Russell (jrussell@jccc.edu, ext. 3284). You may also comment below!
