The scene in 2014:
These photos were taken facing the opposite direction of the ones in this post, and faces the historic Hotel Brooks on the right-hand side of the photos. Built in 1871, it was once a popular hotel and summer resort, but has since been extensively renovated. The outward appearance looks the same, but the interior was drastically changed in the 1970s, and the upper floors were damaged by a fire in 2011. Currently, the building is undergoing repairs, as can be seen with the boarded-up storefronts.
