WYANDOTTE: Phone switchboard, Cahalan building (unknown)

Wyandotte led the way Downriver in establishing telephone service in this area in the late 1800s. Here, a telephone switchboard operator - at the time they were staffed by young men - mans the console at the Cahalan building where Nanna's Kitchen stands today. (Don Gutz collection)
