Great Barrington — The smiling cyclist shown in the above photograph has left her bicycle in the street, perhaps pleased to show off her Easter bonnet to the photographer. The pillared building shown in the background was home to the National Mahaiwe Bank in Great Barrington. It was torn down in 1905 to make room for the present-day Mahaiwe Block at the corner of Main and Castle Streets. The pillars were then reused to adorn the entrance to the nearby Berkshire Inn.
