John Raymond Memorial Universalist Church
The former John Raymond Memorial Universalist Church, Madison & Vine, from February 7, 2016. This is now the Smurfit Arts Center at the U of S. It was always pleasant walking around in the Hill Section by the U, this isn't far from where my great-grandparents lived many decades ago.

U of S Library
The UofS library last Saturday morning, I sure spent a lot of time here years ago. A downloadable copy of Anthracite, railroads, and textiles: industrial development of Lackawanna and Luzerne Counties, 1870-1976 can be found here.

Mulberry Street
Looking west on Mulberry Street from along the UofS, a couple weeks ago. Decades ago my great-grandparents lived where the big red building on the right is.

Royal Way
Royal Way on the U of S campus, March 2017, haven't been able to go through here in years. A shame considering how much money we spent here. We used to like to walk over for coffee on Sunday afternoon, almost wonder if we'll ever be able to do that again.

New Stairs
The new stairway by the UofS football field, behind Lackawanna Station, is now finished. The old stairs were wooden, and beginning to deteriorate, this is a much needed improvement. The large slab of concrete is a footer of the old Spruce Street Bridge, demolished in 1969.

UofS Garbage Truck
Spotted this along Ridge Row last week, the U is the size of a small city during the school year hence the need for the enhanced sanitation department. Now I need one in HO scale.
