Now and a Long Time Ago: M and 33rd

33rd and m

Today with Now and a Long Time Ago, GM visits a corner oft visited by tourists these days: 33rd and M. While it’s cupcakes that bring people these days, 100 years ago visitors looking to fix a flat tire might’ve stopped here.

The old photo was taken in 1922. (Go to Shorpy for more info on the photo). It shows the Potomac Garage (3307 – 2209 M St.) According to the sign on the side of the truck, if you wanted them “Just Call West 344”.
