Description
Photograph of the street and several buildings, including one labeled "NOVAK ELEVATOR COMPANY". Another building to its right is labeled "HAY FEED & GRAIN". To the right of that is another building, "OTTO COKE". To the right of that is a long, three-story building with many windows. The streets are wet. 2 horses and a carriage sit parked, with a person standing nearby. A man and boy stand waiting at the street corner. A trolley passes by. A large crowd of people stand at another street corner. Two boys stand at a distance from them watching, with a wheelbarrow sitting near them. In the foreground is an empty street and a large muddy hole in the ground. Telephone poles and their wires fill the skyline.
A street scene shows a trolley car on tracks with a group of people gathered nearby. Utility poles and overhead wires line the street, and several industrial buildings with signage are visible in the background, including one labeled "ELEVATOR." A horse-drawn wagon is also present on the left side of the image.
