The new intersection of Maplewood Avenue with Congress, Islington and Middle sts., Portsmouth, NH. This is one of 327 images attributed to Thomas Minichiello who documented the destruction of the North End from c. 1968-1972. The neighborhood was demolished as part of the Vaughan Street Urban Renewal Project, c. 1968. Sometimes overlooked, the urban renewal project also included part of downtown Portsmouth: the north side of Congress Street from Vaughan Street to Bridge Street. |
