Description
Photograph of the Chinese district in Carson City, Nevada, ca.1935. A line of shabby wooden houses is at left and stretches towards the back right corner. The buildings are very close together and have small covered porches held up by wooden posts. There is a small creek running in front of the homes, and it is crossed by several rickety wooden bridges. There is tall grass on both sides of the stream, and several trees can be seen at left.
