Vue de la Riviere, Maysville, Ky. Postcard (1907)

Reads: Vue de la Riviere, Maysville, Ky.
Personal postcard sent by someone traveling by boat from Pittsburg, Pennsylvania to Memphis, Tennessee. Shows a bird's eye view of 1907 Maysville Kentucky, pre-suspension bridge. The suspension bridge was built in the 1930s.
This was in 1907, and though I can pick out some buildings that are no longer there, and of course there's no bridge, the surprising thing is that it doesn't look that much different today.
Beautiful then,.....and still beautiful today.
