There are tons of history books with pictures of pre-WWII Greenville, but does anyone have pictures of Greenville between 1950-1980--particularly things would not typically be of interest, such as:

(1) Main Street in the '60s and '70s
(2) Interior shots of malls in the '70s (McAlister, Bell Tower and Greenville Malls)?
(3) Other commercial buildings, such as the Poinsett Hotel then?

Thanks!

Thanks for sharing this link! I never knew that the grid shifted on either side of McBee Ave. I just assumed the slight shifts of Richardson and Spring Streets were always there...

Thanks- that gallery is terrific!

Funny to see McAlister Square with just 2 anchors and a full parking lot, and Bell Tower Mall with all of its anchors (yet a half-empty parking lot...very foreboding).
