Tampas Clara Frye Hospital, 1928, closed and was torn down in the mid-60s. It was the only hospital that African Americans could go! Tampa General would reject Black People. It was devoted exclusively to African-Americans until others had to admit them, the result of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. It was located east of North Boulevard, south of the Holtsinger Bridge over the Hillsborough River. Thats downtown Tampa in the distant background. A much larger Blake High School is now on that site. - @realtampa on Instagram

Here’s a tasty #ThrowbackThursday: Abilene’s beloved Candies by Vletas was founded by two Greek brothers, George and Nick, who brought their confectionary talents to Abilene sweet tooths in 1910. The shop and café were located at the corner of N. 1st and Pine streets, a plum location when the Bankhead Highway was constructed and the first road trippers rolled into the city. These days the candy makers have found another sweet spot, a restored railroad building across from the National Center for Children’s Illustrated Literature, not too far from that original shop. The Vletas brothers passed down their family secrets through generations, and the candy is renowned as a Texas treat. Their famous pralines graced the inaugural dinner of President George W. Bush, and travelers and locals alike stroll in to savor their sugary (and sugar-free) delights. Open Mon-Sat.

This is a photo of the Ethanac Cash Store in the Ethanac community, which was named for Ethan Alan Chase a citrus grower in the area. Later the name was changed to Romoland to accurately reflect its proximity to the Ramola Farms community. A small sign shows it was also the post office and perhaps the small sign on the left is for a telegraph office, since the Menifee Siding was nearby at the railroad tracks. #menifeehistory - @menifeehistory on Instagram

We Love this blast from the past photo! Arlington future with stadiums and entertainment goes way back. This picture is of the Turnpike Stadium prior to opening in 1965 as a minor league baseball stadium with 10,000 seat capacity. The Fort Worth Cats of the Texas League moved there as the Dallas-Fort Worth Spurs, and played there for the next seven years, setting many Texas League attendance records, especially after it expanded to 20,500 seats in 1970. It was built to @mlb specs at the time to attract a major league team. In 1971 the then Washington Senators announced their move to Arlington Texas and the rest is history! Did you ever attend Turnpike Stadium or later called Arlington Stadium? Did you know @utarlington Football team played a season in this stadium? #ilovearlingtontx #turnpikestadium #arlingtontx #minorleaguebaseball #texasrangers #washingtonsenators #utafootball #visitarlington #discoverarlington #localhistory #arlingtonhistory - @ilovearlingtontx on Instagram

As we know the Royal Show has had to go online this year so, in the spirit of #TheShowAtHome, take a birds-eye look at the Showgrounds. See the trams next to the old Centennial Hall? And wouldnt it be handy to have lived in one of those houses on Rose Terrace during showtime. Zoom in here https://collections.slsa.sa.gov.au/resource/B+21668 for the best view. Id like to think it was taken by a jetpack pilot but that be might wishful thinking considering this photo was taken c1936 - #RoyalAdelaideShow #Adelaide #RoyalShow #SouthAustralia #birdseyeview #libraries #archives - @statelibrarysa on Instagram

Its throwback Thursday Westsiders. A post card from the 1900s - New Maribyrnong Bridge... not so new anymore. This is the bridge designed by Sir John Monash and built by the Reinforced Concrete & Monier Pipe Construction Co. for the City of Essendon and the Shire of Braybrook. It was officially opened on 16 March 1911. It was demolished in 1967 when the road alignment was straightened. 📷@library_vic Image No: a02460 #thewestsider #melbswest #melbwest #melbourne #innerwest #westisbest #innerwestmelbourne #community #westernsuburbs #throwbackthursday #oldphoto #history #historicalmelbourne #maribrynong #braybrook #sunshine #1900s - @thewestsider on Instagram

☀️This summer we’ve gotten very little rain: Let’s take a look back 99 years, when #GlendaleAZ saw #historic flooding after a major downpour. Flooding extended from Phoenix to Glendale as Cave Creek overflowed and dumped water into Grand and Arizona Canals. 📷: The photo was taken looking south on 58th Drive towards Grand from Glendale. The R.F. Stauffer Building no longer stands, the Valley Bank Building is all that remains standing today. #throwbackthursday - @glendaleaz on Instagram

El 11 de octubre de 1739 fue la solemne dedicación del Convento de Monjas Carmelitas Descalzas de #Caracas, obra piadosa establecida por iniciativa de doña Josefa Melchora de Ponte, viuda de don Nicolás de Liendo, quien había destinado sus bienes -incluyendo una espaciosa casa situada al Sur de la iglesia de Nuestra Señora de Altagracia- a tal propósito. El inmueble, de dos pisos, poseía una capilla de una nave orientada en sentido Este-Oeste, la cual abría sus dos puertas gemelas a la calle “de la Factoría”, en la actual #avenidaUrdaneta. Los coros bajo y alto, reservados para el uso de las propias monjas, ocupaba la esquina del edificio. Sobre la fachada Oeste (#Carmelitas a #Altagracia), se encontraban la “Portería”, acceso principal al Convento, y la puerta del “Locutorio seglar”, sitio en el que —según explicaba el historiador #CarlosManuelMöller—, “a través de una reja con celosía, podía hablarse con la monja a quien se permitía tal comunicación”. El 9 de mayo de 1874, #AntonioGuzmánBlanco emitió un decreto mediante el cual se extinguían los conventos femeninos, pasando sus bienes al dominio público. Tras unas reformas, la antigua casona fue destinada al Ministerio de Hacienda. Treinta y tres años más tarde, en 1907, el presidente #CiprianoCastro dispone su demolición total para construir el Palacio de Hacienda, obra del ingeniero-arquitecto #AlejandroChataing, el cual a su vez fue demolido en el año 1953, durante las obras de la avenida Urdaneta. El cuerpo bajo del Banco Central de Venezuela, diseñado por el arquitecto #TomásJoséSanabria, ocupa desde 1967 el área del antiguo Convento, en la esquina que aun hoy se conoce como de “Las Carmelitas”. ° ° ° ° En las imágenes: 1. Cuadra de Carmelitas a Altagracia, en una foto publicada en El @cojoilustrado, N° 9, Caracas, 1° de mayo de 1892.

Marine Drive & the automobile, 1953. Archival pic from “Our Bombay,” a Dec. 1953 publication by Bombay Municipal Corporation (BMC) in which Prime Minister Nehru wrote: ‘A city, like a house, is not a mere collection of steel and brick, cement and mortar. It is the outward expression of the life of a community’. Marine Drive with 35 consecutive Art Deco sea facing buildings was the road to be on. The automobile brought speed, power, streamlined design, mobility and symbolised both success and affluence in a modern aspirational city. In these pics @karlbhote tells us we see a mix of primarily English and American cars. Convertibles were already falling out of favour, confirmed by only one seen at the bottom right, likely a Sunbeam Talbot drophead coupe. Since this is the pre Fiat Ambassador days, we see mostly foreign cars - majority of which were assembled in India. Ford had large scale assembly operations in Bombay. General Motors had similar operations in Sewri where Buick (retailed by Metro Motors), and Chevrolet cars (retailed by The Bombay Garage), rolled out. Dodge and Plymouth cars were assembled at Premier Automobiles Kurla facility, and retailed by The Bombay Cycle and Motor Agency which still stands at Sandhurst bridge. Across the road were the stunning modern Deco showrooms of Dadajee Dhackjee & Co, agents for Packard and Mercedes-Benz cars, at Shree Pant Bhuvan. The English were represented by Morris cars, sold by the French Motor Car Co. at New Queens Road and Hillman Minx cars were assembled by Automobile Products of India (API) at their Bhandup facility. Austin cars were sold by The Automobile Co. Ltd, also at New Queens Road. Cars seen in the picture: 1.Sunbeam Talbot Drophead Coupe - around 1947/48 2.Hillman Minx (2 cars seen) - around 1948-52 3.Hindustan 14 - around 1949-54 4.Dodge Custom - 1947/48 5.Vauxhall Velox or Wyvern - around 1952/55 @karlbhote is a vintage & classic car enthusiast, with a particular fondness for India’s automotive history & Bombay’s Deco. #cars #automobile #marineDrive #Ford #Vauxhall #Morris #chevrolet #GM #artdeco #mumbai - @artdecomumbai on Instagram

El Monte Legion Stadium - Originally built in 1927 as the gymnasium for the old El Monte High School campus , the stadium is most famous for hosting the dances that would serve as inspiration for the song “Memories of El Monte” written by Frank Zappa and performed by The Penguins. The stadium remained mostly unused once the new El Monte High campus opened on Tyler Ave. and welcomed the class of 1940. The American Legion purchased the stadium in 1945 and renamed it “El Monte Legion Stadium” From 1945 through the mid 1950’s the stadium hosted a wide range of events: basket ball games, wrestling, boxing, roller derby’s, and even mini car races. The stadium reached the apex of it’s popularity when legendary disc Jockey Art Laboe brought his Oldies But Goodies dances to El Monte. At the time city ordinances and regulations in Los Angeles did not allow large gatherings of young people under the age of 18. The stadium was a perfect venue, close enough to Los Angeles but outside of the city limits and not subject to Los Angeles ordinances. Art Laboe’s dances at the Legion we’re extremely popular. Crowds of young people from different backgrounds and ethnicities from all over the southland were brought together by their love of dancing and music. Some notable acts that performed at the stadium: Jerry Lee Lewis, The Penguins, Rosie and The Originals, Jackie Wilson, Sam Cooke, and Richie Valens. By the 1960’s The young crowds moved on the the booming sunset strip and Los Angeles proper. The stadium remained in operation hosting smaller events. In 1973 the US Postal Service purchased the stadium property to build a new post office. The stadium was torn down on Friday the 13th 1974. The Union Walk townhome development currently sits at the former site of the stadium at Valley and Ramona Blvd. A small fountain and plaque in front of the development memorializes the history that the Stadium made in EL Monte. - @elmonte.captured on Instagram
