Garfield Ave., Pocatello, Idaho 1910 Photograph of Garfield Avenue, Pocatello, Idaho. The street runs north & south on the west side of town. The reverse of the cabinet card includes an advertisement concerning irrigated lands available in Idaho placed by the Oregon Short Line Railroad. 



Elks Lodge, N. Arthur Street, Pocatello, Idaho 1925 The Elks Lodge on the west side of N. Arthur Street, Pocatello, Idaho. Among the largest and most active of the lodges in town. The lodge remains active, but moved from the building which was torn down in the early 1970s.
For this assignment, I thought it would be cool to do some repeat photography of old photos of Pocatello, more specifically, Old Town. I decided to do black and white to reflect the original coloring of the photos. This was actually kind of a difficult assignment as Old Town has changed since a these photos were taken and it was difficult to locate where exactly some of these pictures were taken. The hardest photo for me was the one on North Arthur because I was looking for the building in the middle which I didn’t realize had been torn down. My Mother-In-Law actually helped me figure out where this was at and I actually had to go farther back than the original photo because of Poky High and because of all the cars parked along the road.
The old photos were sourced from here: http://yesteryear.idahostatejournal.com/?cat=13
