25. Maiden Tower. Possibly in the 1960s. Traffic was sparse. The Boulevard was still quite narrow.

26. Maiden Tower, 1876. Note that there is no park and that the sea is adjacent the avenue.

27. Maiden Tower, 1895. View from a pier in the Caspian. The monument towers above all buildings, unlike today.
