Business Block

Title

Business Block

Description

Sepia-toned image of a business street with two-story buildings on one side and a grassy park area with oak trees on the other. According to the visible signs, the stores along the street sell groceries, furniture, hardware, and pharmaceuticals. While at least one car is parked along the edge of the street, there are several wagons along the side of the street at the far end and a bicycle near the right side of the image. There are curbs and a poured sidewalk in front of the stores, but the street appears to be packed earth rather than paved.
