PLACES

Barber Shop, c. 1920 Depot
Brownsville Map, circa 1843 Post Office, cr. 1920
Cotton Field, 1983   Haywood High
Gazebo, Bomar Park on E. College   Abandoned in the late 1940's; swings & playground equipment moved to area now occupied by Elma Ross Public Library on  E. Main.  It seems that Mr. Bomar gave the E. College Park site in perpetuity --- so the stones that said "Bomar Park" were moved to E. Main.  Don't know where they are now.   The gazebo --- or bandstand --- just remained and declined, as did the wading pool still there in the mid 1970's,  behind the houses built at old Bomar Park.   A nice lady directed activities for young children at the park in the afternoon.  Seems like the band stand was higher off the ground than it looks here and had storage space under it --- but not rest rooms, to the best of my remembrance.  The boards across the front at the step location indicate 7 or more steps --- so I guess it was pretty high.
