Dorchester Illustration of the Day no. 1722
In the first half of the 20th century, the Cosgrove Milk Company operated from a location on Christopher Street in the commercial area to the east of Adams Street in the Field’s Corner/Harrison Square neighborhood.
Today’s image shows a Cosgrove’s milk truck from Dennis W. Cosgrove whose aunts Dot Cosgrove Fitzgerald and Marie Cosgrove Steele appear in the photo.
