Description
Photograph of a view of an unidentified street in Wilmington showing the sediments left over from the flood, ca.1920. The broad dirt road is at center and is heavily marked by wagon tracks. It is lined with sidewalks and utility poles, and there are two-story buildings on both sides of the street. The windows on the building at left are all covered with light-colored awnings. At right is a large empty lot encircled by a low wooden fence. Several horse-drawn buggies are visible in the distance.
Legible signs include, from left to right, "Drugs", and "Plants".
