The Center of a Booming Town:
This 1886 view looking southeast across Gettysburg's center square captures its 1860 appearance (excepting the three-story in the right center background). The David Wills house (ca 1816) is on the left and the Schick Building (ca 1820) is on the right. The photo shows a demonstration of the fire company's new pumper, the "General Meade." |
