It’s Wayback Wednesday, sponsored by Pharmasave Huntsville!<\/strong><\/h4>\n
<\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

This is John Whiteside’s Riverside Lumber Company mill, where Park Drive meets Brunel Road near the high school, likely in the 1890s. The photographer’s perspective is from about where the Jack Bionda Arena is today, looking west. Whiteside’s mill was smaller than that of other lumber companies in town which were on Hunters Bay and had rail access. According to Huntsville: With Spirit and Resolve, <\/em>Huntsville’s four lumber companies employed 175 men and cut 125,000 to 150,000 feet of lumber each day. Note Cann’s Creek in the foreground. It is now contained within a culvert.<\/p>\n

This is Dr. Howland\u2019s General Hospital (back left). Built in 1893 at the corner of John and Main Streets, east of the bridge, and expanded in 1895-96, Dr. Howland\u2019s General Hospital accommodated 100 patients. According to Huntsville: With Spirit and Resolve<\/em>, it had \u201csunbath corridors, convalescent wards, elevators, Town water and electricity, and \u2018the best, excellently lighted operating room with all modern appliances for aseptic treatments\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cInsurance\u201d could be purchased from the hospital for five dollars, giving its bearer any care needed for the year. Dr, Howland died in 1916 and the building was torn down in March 1920.<\/p>\n

The woman in the foreground of this photo is Daisy Wardell.<\/p>\n
