Description
Photograph of a view of San Jose following the 1906 earthquake, showing damage done to a business street, 1906. Several people stand along the street looking at the debris of a building that stood on the corner. The half of the building that did not fall can be seen just to the left with all the rooms on the visible side exposed due to the collapsed outer walls. The buildings along the street further down appear to be in tact with many horses and carriages as well as people standing on the sidewalk just outside. At center, the blur can be seen of a horse and carriage that moves quickly down the street from left to right.
