Description
Photograph of the cactus in front of the Roundhouse building at 311 South Main Street during the time that a Kindergarten school occupied the building, ca.1882. The cactus resembles a tree, and holds all of its flat spiny leaves high off the ground on a tall trunk. There are buildings on the left side of the street, including one with a covered porch that reaches out over the sidewalk. The road is unpaved and lined with trees on the right side.
