This view appears to be looking north and shows the area south of where Montrose Road intersects with Rockville Pike. The Pike is in the background. The foreground is described by the source as the Villa Roma restaurant (on Wall Lane, where Nicholson Lane is today) — however, although this may be the same house, other sources indicate that the restaurant did not open until about 16 years later (see the discussion of the “Rainbow Motel” under the 1960s heading, below).
