Description

Black and white image of the Twin City Motor Court on US Route 302/ Barre-Montpelier Road in Berlin, Vermont. The photograph is taken at a distance, from across the road. The image depicts a store with Coca-Cola signs and a Texaco gas pump out front facing the roadway. Directly behind the store is a semi-circular row of individual cabins. A longer motel building with ten separate room entrances is behind the cabins, set up on the hillside. Someone has written 1952 on the front of the postcard.

The cabins were demolish in September 2021, soon after the modern photograph was taken.
