You are all correct. I meant Northeastern and haver corrected the posting. Truth is, in the some total of 19-20 years spent in the Boston-Cambrtidge area, I never once was inside Northeastern U. Inside Symphony Hall, not far away, maybe 1000 times. But I did hear excellant organ recitals on the very beautiful Aeolian Skinner organ at Northwestern (Alice Millard Chapel?). The firm that I worked for 1957-1971, including three years at the Downerrs Grove Office, had been the acoustical advisors, although I was not directly involved.
Thanks for the important correction.
Other photo and information contributions, comments, and questions requested.
An attempt in improvement of the two Commonweakth Avenue photos:
Great picture.
The Cities Service sign in the background is in Kenmore Square, close to Fenway Park. The famous CITGO sign replaced it in 1965.
Yikes. I remember when it changed!
(Wow. That's a Crosley station wagon!)
