How Well Do You Know Peabody?

As old and staid as the former downtown building block may seem in the black and white photo provided by the George Peabody Museum and the Peabody Leatherworkers Museum, it is still being used the same as it was at the turn of the 20th century.

Today, the block houses two Peabody Square businesses that are very familiar to residents: Brodie's Pub and Downtown Pizza. Congratulations to Marie Bishop who was the first to guess the correct answer. You will receive a $5 Dunkin' Donuts gift card from Peabody Patch later this week.

Thank you to all of our readers for participating in this week's history contest. Please visit our site on Saturday when Peabody Patch will post another historic photo to test your knowledge about the city's vibrant past.
