The following advertisements were taken from the Jamaica Plain News, February, 1899. The Hotel Morse is still there on Green street. The store that was on the corner of Jamaica and Woodman streets was in the first floor of the apartment building that still stands there. 3357 Washington street is across the street from the police station. John Gorman shoed horses in the lot beside the Our Lady of Lourdes hall on Brookside avenue. Woolsey square, on the west side of the Jamaica Plain train station at Green street, is long gone. Norcross & Myrick was at the present site of the post office on Centre street. 133 Green street is where condos now overlook the Green street playground. Keazer and Atherton's store was at Centre and Burroughs streets. A.J. Ford's, at 122 Green street, must have been where the playground is now. And finally, Trott's store sat at the corner of Centre and Thomas streets, where Dunkin Donuts now holds down the fort.

I love these. I am always very interested in businesses that are no longer around. I buy those old Boston almanacs for that very purpose. You always amaze me with your JP finds. I have no idea how you do it.
