Summary

• In this view looking northwest across the intersection of South 11th and Washington Streets in Manitowoc, Wisconsin, the David Muchin Sinclair filling station with its three gasoline pumps is seen at 936 South 11th Street. Two women with a bicycle stand near the gas pumps, while two men start to cross South 11th Street. On the same corner, fronting Washington Street, is a storefront with a canvas awning. This building housed several shoe stores during the 1940s. Next door, also with an awning, is the Victory Barber Shop at 1106 Washington. Dominating the skyline is the tall broadcast tower of radio station WOMT, which had its studios in the building at the far left.
