Midland, 1928....
And now for your comparison, Midland in 1928. 1928 was a pivotal year in the growth of Midland, with the Scharbauer Hotel just nearing completion and the start of construction on The Petroleum Building, both assuring Midland's future as the hub of the Permian Basin oil business. Work on the Petroleum Building would begin later in the year on the block just to the north and across the street from the court house.
