Looking east on Lincoln Way from the Kellogg Avenue corner around 1961. Mobilgas, a service station on the northeast corner, was in business as a Mobil company until 1970. The Borrall's sign seen at the center right of the photo showed shoppers traveling down Lincoln Way the turn to access their grocery store at 202 Market Street, a small street to the north of Lincoln Way. Borrall's Super Valu was in business at that location from 1961 through 1965. The automobiles in the photo appear to be models manufactured in the late 1950s. (Photograph, courtesty of the Iowa Department of Transportation.)
