Description
Photograph of an exterior view of the Carnegie Library in Fresno, ca.1910. The long, one-story brick building is pictured at center, and appears to be modeled in the romanesque style of architecture. Three columns flank each side of the steps that lead to the main entrance at center, while each of the six windows is arched. Above the entrance a sign reads "Fresno Public Library". On the edge of the sidewalk in the foreground, a framework that appears to be a bicycle rack can be seen at right.
