Title	Terminus of Streetcar Line at Miller Park, 1921
Date (yyyy-mm-dd)	1921-06
Description	Electric streetcar service on the Arlington line was provided by the Columbus Railway Power and Light Company and ran to and from downtown Columbus. This relatively convenient and inexpensive method of public transportation was integral to the early development of Upper Arlington. After several delays the residents of Upper Arlington were thrilled on April 24, 1921, when the streetcar line was extended to the eastern corner of Miller Park at the intersection of Arlington Avenue, Tremont Road and Stanford Road. The building in the background of this photograph, 1901 Arlington Avenue, served many functions. It was Upper Arlington's village hall, the Upper Arlington Company's field office, a voting location, and a shelter for streetcar passengers. In its renovated form, the building now serves as the Miller Park Branch of the Upper Arlington Public Library.
