A view down Main Street in Waltham, Massachusetts, with cars parked along both curbs and a row of storefronts and signs, including an A&P Super Market and the University Cafe. The wide paved street and low commercial buildings give the scene the look of a busy downtown shopping strip. Waltham was a long-established manufacturing city, and Main Street served as its central business district. The A&P sign reflects the grocery chain's expansion into larger supermarket-style stores during the 1930s.
