SC-MP008 Pitt Street Merchants

Marker text: Pitt Street Merchants - By the middle of the 20th Century, the residents of the old village shopped on Pitt Street. This area included grocery, hardware, and department stores; a dress shop, doctors' offices, the pharmacy, barber shop, post office, and Mount Pleasant Academy. A passive control device then referred to as a "dumb policeman" directed traffic at the intersection of Venning, Pitt and Church streets.
