1. Juventino Rosas Theater Marker
Así lucía el primer tramo de la avenida de Los Héroes, antes de 1960. Ahí se estableció el primer sitio de automóviles de alquiler, y lo más notorio de la imagen viene a ser la desaparición del viejo Palacio de Gobierno y el cine Juventino Rosas. Por otra parte, los vehículos de motor, eran no más de medio centenar mientras que la mayoría de los ciudadanos utilizaba la bicicleta como medio de transporte.
