Description
Photograph of Main Street below Seventh Street, looking south, ca.1906. At the far end of the street, the outlines of two trolley cars can be seen moving along the tracks embedded in the unpaved road. Victorian-style two story residences combine with shops to line the right side of the street, although mostly commercial ventures dominate the left. Pedestrians can be seen walking along the sidewalks on each side. Telephone poles are evident at regular intervals to the right, along with trees.
