Looking down Commercial Street towards the east, this view can be studied almost endlessly due to its great amount of detail, and thus it lends itself to larger prints which do it justice.
Looking down Commercial Street towards the east, this view can be studied almost endlessly due to its great amount of detail, and thus it lends itself to larger prints which do it justice. Many of these buildings, especially those in the background, no longer exist, due to the devastating fire which destroyed much of the downtown area in 1922.
You can see in detail view 2 that the residential area in the foreground not only sports wooden sidewalks, it also has wooden plank streets.
