Description
Photograph of an illustration depicting the intersection of Market Street and McAllister Street in San Francisco, ca.1890. The two cobblestone streets intersect at an acute angle on the right side of the image. There are several pedestrians and horse-drawn vehicles in the street. There are two cable cars, one on Market Street and one on McAllister Street. There are utility wires running above both streets. In the background is a building with a large dome topped with a narrow spire.
