An image of Parrish Street from 1924. The six-story building in the center of the photo was the home office for the North Carolina Mutual Life Company until they moved into a larger building. Today, that building contains a branch of Mechanics and Farmers Bank.

Today, Parrish Street is undergoing revitalization. See if you can find the Old North Carolina Mutual Building on the Parrish Street today, using Google Streetview, a feature of Google Maps.
