Description
Photograph of a view of West Santa Clara Street, near Market Street after the 1906 earthquake in San Jose, April, 1906. Columns still support the roof of the buildings along the right side of the road, but the walls have crumbled into debris that spills into the street. People can be seen walking the street in the back on the left and the buildings along the left side seem to be intact. Electrical poles still stand and line both sides of the streets.
