This is an aerial photograph of the Howell Promenade Mall, Howell, Michigan, 1951.
The view is looking south with the southeast shore of Thompson Lake in the foreground, the Livingston County Garage dated 1933 to the east, then to south, Grand River Avenue, and the Promenade Mall. Also visible is Sutton Street off from North National and the beginnings of an industrial park.
The I-96 Expressway had not yet been built and one can see Lucy/Fisk Road extending south, unbroken by a highway.
