Description
Photograph of a view of an open-air produce market in the Central Manufacturing District, [s.d.]. A wide paved area can be seen at center and is crowded with merchants, trucks, and stacks of produce. Long two-story warehouses can be seen on either side of the selling area. Cloth awnings line the first floor of the warehouses at right. Lamps can be seen hung from wires strung between the buildings, as well as on light posts at left.
Legible signs include, from left: "A. Levin Co.", "Hall, Haas & Vessen", "Commission Merchants", "Distributors Beaumont Cherries and Peaches", and "Star Produce Co.".
