Napa Street near Broadway

Napa Street is too short to actually have house numbers—every lot on it faces on Broadway, Carlton Avenue or Belgrave Place—but the sidewalk layers thought it worth marking just the same. There’s another Wiggins & Kaiser mark along Broadway near here.

5633 Manila Avenue

The final paved block of Manila, on the south side of Broadway, was paved by Tribuzio Bros, but just around the corner are later marks by G. Tribuzio and N. Tribuzio. Maybe they combined forces for bigger jobs.

Here’s another example of a Frank Salamid mark where the “& Co.” is only partially obscured.
