There is also no Electric listed in 1914-15.

The comment about the other Electric is now missing, so I don’t know who had what information, but there was no 100 block of W 6th until the bridge was built sometime after 1962. The area where the street is now was mostly industrial.

That other Electric must have been at 116 W 6th, since the entire even side of the 100 block of E 6th was the C.G.W. Railroad freight depot. I didn’t look at the part of town across the river yet.

Note that odds and evens switched sides sometime after the theater was demolished.
