Description

Images of the intersection of Slavia Road (once named Redbug Road) and SR426 (Aloma Ave.) taken in 2015 show a thriving business (Lukas Nursery) on the southwest corner. A traffic light is needed to monitor the flow of hundreds of vehicles at that intersection every day. Two images from an earlier time (c.1945 and 1956) reveal a very different scenario: the current Slavia Road was then a clay road used primarily by the Slavia residents. The photo of young Andrew J. Jakubcin holding his pet offers a view of the Duda Warehouse, once used to store crates of produce which were later loaded onto freight cars at the Slavia Depot and a railroad crossing sign for tracks which were vacated in the 1990s. The railroad bed was then developed into a hiking-biking trail.
