Wabash Avenue

This unused postcard has just the printed text - Published by A. Herz, Terre Haute, Ind.

Herz store was demolished in the spring of 1971, but the postcard was taken from under the store's awning looking east. The turrets of Terre Haute House can be seen on the left (north side of Wabash Avenue). The building stood in this form from 1855 to 1927. The large building on the right (south side of Wabash Avenue) is the Terre Haute Trust building which was built in 1908.
