Description
Photograph of a Pasadena street crowded with buggies and streetcars, ca.1910. The wide street is at center and is marked by several sets of streetcar tracks. Two streetcars are making their ways down the middle of the street at center. Horse-drawn buggies and wagons line both sides of the street. There is a six-story rectangular building with a flat roof at right. There are awnings protruding from windows on all of the levels. The street is lined with more buildings, but all are considerably smaller than the large one at right. A network of utility lines crosses the street overhead.
Legible signs include, from left to right, [Pas]adena", "Union National Bank", "Merrill", and "China".
