288-290 Meeting Street

Description

Four Ektachrome color slides of the gas station located at 288-290 Meeting Street shortly before its demolition. It had been constructed on the site of the Gabriel Manigault House which itself was demolished in the 1920s. Brick and other elements (columns, balusters, and window surrounds) were saved from the demolition and used in the HCF's Frances R. Edmunds Center for Historic Preservation at 108 Meeting Street.
