via. there is no date listed for this photograph, but it looks like it was pre-terminal tower (completed in 1930). it appears the convention center is being built, which began construction in 1920. kinda neat to compare this photo with a current satellite view on google maps.

john neely posted a photo the other day of this logo on a cab, so i redrew it because i was bored.
