Description
Today: Oakland Avenue, bordered with nice shade trees and well-kept homes, is still one of the city's finest residential districts. Where horses used to trot their buggies along the wide brick street, automobiles now zip along the smooth concrete paving.
[Earlier photo of scene is not in the file, but caption in the Nonpareil reads: "Council Bluffs Changing Scene: Back in 1911, a postcard was printed with this view of Oakland Avenue, looking north from Fletcher Avenue. At that time the chief mode of transportation was the horse and buggy. The old card is from a large collection owned by Harland Collins, 301 Morningside Ave."]
