Photograph of Broadway looking north from Tenth Street, 1890. At least two craftsman-style buildings with chimneys are visible in the background left of the street, partially obscured by trees and other vegetation. The street is unpaved and what appear to be several carriages or automobiles are moving along it too quickly to be photographed with clarity. A telephone pole is visible to the right, and what appears to be a pile of cut tree branches is in the lot next to the buildings.
