Main Street
Bring a little Marlborough home.
Slate Desk Plaque · 11 × 7 inches
A book, a pen and a page of work are ready on the desk, with the small plaque set nearby where there is time to notice its picture. Marlborough's Main Street brings a depot, streetcar, pedestrians and horse-drawn vehicles together, giving an ordinary pause several kinds of movement to notice.
An early postcard shows Marlborough's Main Street with the New Haven depot, a streetcar, pedestrians and horse-drawn vehicles. Commercial buildings line the scene. It records several kinds of travel sharing the town center, preserving the street's railway identity without assigning it to the Assabet riverfront.
The street scene connects Marlborough's commerce with changing ways of travel. Make room beside the pen cup or books, keeping the small display within reach of an ordinary day's work at home.
