Description
Photograph of a view of Main Street in Watsonville, ca.1900. Horse-drawn carriages line the dirty, paved street while one carriage can be seen in the center of the street further down with a man standing to the left. People walk the sidewalk on the left with a tall, lightly-colored building behind them. The building has many windows above the thick porch which stands above the first level and a telegraph pole stands in the street just out front. Electrical poles line either side of the street into the distance along with tall buildings with many windows on each level.
