Color postcard of Charlotte NC in 1907 showing the residential-commercial mix of the Third Ward District. To the right of the postcard can be seen the YMCA with its distinctive turrets and brown granite stone. Next door is the office of Charlotte's Consolidated Construction Company and then the fine Southern States Trust Building housing the Academy of Music.
