Happy anniversary to us!
This marks the end of the 1st year of our weekly photo challenge. Created by wonderful photographer Lynn U. Miller (with help from a few others), each Sunday we roam around town. We present scenes — okay, itty-bitty pieces of scenes — you pass by regularly, and ask you to remember where you’ve seen them.
We’ve featured shots from the beach, Main Street, Town Hall — places familiar to all, but not always instantly recognizable. Last Sunday’s photo of the bell at Viva Zapata’s, for example, was identified by only 3 people: Bill Kiedaisch, Evan Barr and Michael Dobbs. (Several folks thought it was across Riverside Avenue, at the fire station.) For the photo and comments, click here.
We celebrate our anniversary with a photo that literally says “Westport”:
If you think you know where it is, click “Comments” below. We’ll be back next Sunday, with another edition of “Oh My 06880.”

Northbound or southbound (east/west), Bridgeport or New York?
It seems too obvious for it to be the sign on the platform at the Saugstuck railroad station. Is it?
Yes. An easy one for the relaxing holiday season!

I grew up in Westport in Covlee but have lived in Bethel for almost 50 years. Class of ’59 Staples (first at ‘new’ school). My home room and several classes was in the OLD building on Riverside ave. Anybody remember the rifle range in the basement of the ‘new’ building?
Hi Tom,
I don’t remember the rifle range, by the new building do you mean on North Ave, or the “new building” on Riverside? When you say the old building I think of the old brick Bedford Building on Riverside. Do we have your current address for the classmates listing?
Happy New Year

I think so as it hasn’t changed in forty years. Great to hear from you. The old building was the brownstone named for Horace (?) Staples. The new one was the long building with the cafe in the huge bow window room. Two yrs there and one in the NEW school on North ave. Wow, where has time gone. I’ll be 75 on Friday.

Got here too late, but of course it’s just the Saugatuck train station. I’m really posting to wish you a Happy New Year, and to thank you for your wonderful blog, which brightens up my day.
Thanks, Bobbie — much appreciated!
Westport Saugatuck train station
Even if I don’t live there anymore…I pretty much assumed the Train Station too …
I am pretty sure I can spot this one all the way from Los Cabos, Dan. Looks a lot like the sign(s) at the train station.
Train Station!
Westport train station, North side!
