Lower Mall Contest Winner
The winner of the first television set to be given away as a prize in Cleveland. Not sure of the wisdom in this, although there was only one station on the air at the time, and it didn't start it's broadcast day until late afternoon.

New townhouses with a great view of the NKP under construction. Too bad they won't be done in time for UP 4014's passage next month. These would be great railfan homes, only $480,000 quite the bargain.
