Aerial photograph of downtown Ames taken by Olav Smedal (Valo Feature Service) around 1949. This is actually an enlargement of a portion of a larger aerial photography. Most prominent here are the tracks of the Chicago & North Western Railroad and its depot (in the left center). The depot still has park grounds in front (center of photo). Later the trees were removed and a parking lot installed.
