Dorchester Illustration no. 2221
Photograph of Morton Street from the railroad bridge next to police station looking toward Selden Street in 1927.
The three-deckers on the right were built beginning in 1925. This line of three-deckers begins with no. 899 permitted in August 1925, then 903 permitted in September 1925, then 907 permitted in October 1925, and 911 permitted in December 1925. The police station on the left, which was permitted in April 1915, was recently taken down in July 2013. The masonry commercial strip on the left was lengthened at the far end within a year or two after this photo was taken.
