1006 83rd Avenue
Corners: Glen Park Road and E. 38th Street
19 May 2015
The corner at this intersection was laid down in 1923 by C. A. Lindstrom. However, at the time East 38th intersected with 14th Avenue. Later this section of 14th, just past where the eastbound 57/58L/NL lines turn onto MacArthur, was renamed Glen Park Road.
Corners: Hays and McAdam
18 May 2015
Here’s another dated and signed corner. Oakland Paving Company made it in 1913. However, Hays Avenue was renamed Golden Gate Avenue and McAdam Street became first Broadway Terrace, then Romany Road. You have to be careful what you put in concrete. In fact you’ll see that the pavers used a “V” to spell “Hays.”
Corners: Suter and 39th Avenue
17 May 2015
The last time I put up a corner mark, I said that they aren’t dated or signed. There are exceptions, though. C. A. Lindstrom laid down this Allendale corner in 1923.
Special marks: Peace 68

Pleasant Valley Road near Montgomery Avenue
Once again I’ve run a little low on proper sidewalk stamps, so until I can rustle up some more I’ll be running some odd and/or special items.
1957 – Cragun & Cragun
15 May 2015
Bancroft Avenue at 88th Avenue
I documented this same Cragun & Cragun mark at 68th Avenue and Bancroft, although the year on that one was indeterminate. It was definitely not 1957.
At the moment I’ve run short of sidewalk stamps, so look forward to a few days of special marks.
