This is just a short blog about Truxton Circle, not only as a place where working people lived, but also a place where people worked. Though now the neighborhood is primarily residential, with the exception of North Cap, the area held commercial spaces, schools, a firehouse and a hospital.
Where the New York Ave park sits, a hospital with nurses and doctors was once.
Where the Northwest Co-op sits was an industrial area around the 1920s. People worked in the dairy and garages.
Lastly were the schools, where teachers worked.
So for all who labored in Truxton Circle, Happy Labor Day.
