The picture is dated 7/23/61. The caption says "Last old house on Hope Street wrecked the next day." Is that an incinerator in the back yard?


Detail of picture above.

The treatment of the sanitary sewer connections coming through the walls into an exterior vent stack is somewhat interesting and implies the house may have been built prior to there being any sanitary sewer lines in the area before the house was built. And is that a hitching post or is it possbly an old water well?
