G.D. Fronabarger took lots of aerial photographs over the Cape Girardeau area. This one is looking east over Capaha Park.
Perry Avenue is at the bottom with Southeast Missouri Hospital in the lower right corner. Notice the first addition to the building on the south side. Broadway runs up the right side. Southeast Missouri State College is at the top.
Close up sections of this photograph are together here.
The former oval swimming pool can be seen after it was converted to a formal garden.
Capaha Lagoon was dredged in 1962.
The new swimming pool opened in 1957.
The double slide was still there at Normal and West End Boulevard.
