1953 Main Street Whitehall Michigan

This is a 1953 real photo postcard (RPPC). A marvelous view of Main Street. See the futuristic popcorn stand outside the drugstore. The town is located on White Lake (the mouth of the White River). Whitehall's recorded history began circa 1859 when Charles Mears, a noted lumber baron to the area, platted the village along with Giles B. Slocum, naming it Mears. The population continued to grow due to its strategic location for floating and distributing lumber. In 1862, it was renamed Whitehall and incorporated as the Village of Whitehall in 1867.
