Album Description:

This album is mostly old photos of historic Rockford area scenes and items. I have retouched to enhance the details as much as possible from the low quality original scans. I sure would like to get the originals of some of these to do some high quality

  • Very nice pictures. The Public Library has the original date stone in the lobby on the river side. Located on the western bank of the beautiful Rock River in the heart of Rockford's Cultural Corridor, this Carnegie building was built in 1902 and continues to be a cornerstone of the Rockford community.
