As the warm weather approaches, you may start to see local vendors set up on street corners in the North End – maybe you even bought fresh vegetables or flowers from them in previous years!

Well, some things never seem to change. This old photo of a couple selling vegetables on the corner of Prince Street and Salem Street dates all the way back to 1935. What was a good spot for business back then, might still be true today.
