The Dothan neighborhood of Southside looks nothing today like it did in 1958.

Fortunately, a collection of photographs has survived the intervening decades (as well as a close encounter with a bonfire) to give us a glimpse of what the area looked like more than 65 years ago.

These pictures are the only complete record available of this neighborhood before it was reshaped by urban renewal projects and might very well represent the last time any of these buildings were ever photographed.
