From the 'Turnback Tuesday' archives: View of old Derby


This week's "Turnback Tuesday" photo features a unique and picturesque view looking down from where St. Michael's Church is now.
You can see the First Congregational Church in the right foreground and across the Naugatuck River, the big white building is the former Sterling Piano Company.

The Derby Train Station is also shown while St. Mary's Church steeple is in the far right background. This picture was taken circa 1900.

Thanks goes to the Derby Public Library staff for sharing interesting local history each week.
