Pomona's Southside Historical Society 1898


Kendall Real Estate 103 S. Thomas 1898. Johnson & Hewlett Bicycles 127 S. Thomas 1896-7. Thomas Ave. looking south. Peoples Bank 200 W. 2nd.

Ren's Note: OK just to let you know where your at, today you would be stand in Diamond Plaza (use to be Thomas Plaza) looking south. The building in the back ground, is on the southwest corner of Second St and Thomas St.. That's where the GLASS HOUSE sits today, but before that it was THIRFTY DRUG Store. And before that, it was that castle looking bank was there.
And the building above that, is where the big empty lot, with big hole in it, is today, another name for it, would be Lake Pomona. When it does rain, it looks like a lake, that's why we call it Lake Pomona.
