Ballou's Pictorial Drawing - Room Companion [American Periodicals] Date The date the document or image was originally published or created, in YYYY-MM-DD format (see fields guide for further details) 1859/12/17 Description Describe key features of the primary source and how they help to answer the research question at hand (usually the significance of a space or place to a text and/or its author or readers) This article from Ballou's Pictorial Drawing - Room Companion describes the Washington Building on Washington St, Boston. It describes elements of Washington St such as winding, strangely constructed buildings, and the new Washington Building which has started the conversion from old to new. Washington St. is also a place where “Money is advanced bolding and lavishly for the erection of commanding structures, many of which exceed in grandeur and commercial edifices in the cities of the old world,” meaning Washington St. is a place coming up in the professional world through investment of making old building fit into a new style. This works in conjunction with The Lamplighter when Mr. Bruce is discussing Gerty’s where-a-bouts in Boston. Mr. Bruce speaks about wishing to accompany Miss. Flint for a stroll down Washington St. She denies ever being on that street. Mr. Bruce rebuttal, “But you would have done so with a suitable escort.” Mr. Bruce is a spoiled, lazy, and smug gentleman who has family money, hence his visit to Europe. He thinks himself as a suitable partner for Gerty. Suitable enough to escort a lovely young woman down an up and coming, populous street.
