Description

Photograph of an exterior view of the Southern Pacific Railroad depot in Fresno, ca.1910. The large, long station appears to be constructed in a style similar to Dutch Colonial, its main walls made of brick and its roofs broad and multileveled. A conical spire extends from a set of windows extending over the main entrance, where several pedestrians can be seen. A set of streetcar tracks can be seen cutting across the width of the image in the foreground.
