This aerial postcard of Fair Haven was contributed by Ted Stojkovski. In this view the hotel next to Roy Maynard’s garage is gone. It was torn down in 1953. The Bayside Market across the street at the corner of Fancher Avenue is not there yet and the previous store is gone, having burned March 17, 1955. The new store opened August 2 of the same year and it appears that the new construction has not yet started. Only some of the trees have spring leaves. This photo was probably taken in April of 1955.
These three stores are the buildings that burned in the 1955 fire. In this photo, Fancher Avenue intersects Main Street to the right of the church.
