Description
Looking southward through San Jose's Financial District, at the intersection of First Street and Santa Clara Street. Three banks and a large office building can be seen. On the left is the Bank of San Jose, with its four-way tower clock. Across the street, also on the left, is the Commercial and Savings Bank. On the far right corner stands the First National Bank. The Knox Block, dating back to 1865, takes up the near-right corner.
