Five Points, looking northbound, in the 1950s

This photograph from the archives of Delaware’s Department of Transportation shows the Route 9 and Route 1 intersection known as Five Points when it wasn’t one of DelDOT’s gnarliest problems.

(EDITOR’S NOTE: This information has been updated, thanks to our readers, to indicate this photo is from the 1950s, not around 1940 as previously stated.)
