Description
Photograph of an exterior view of the U.S. Hotel at 170 North Main Street, showing pedestrians at its base, ca.1935. A three-story Victorian-style building is shown at center, an automobile parked along the sidewalk to the right and pedestrians making their way past the entrance. A tower extends from the flat roof on the right side. To the left, a crosswalk can be seen, at the end of which a streetlamp is visible at the edge of the Leighton Restaurant, which is designed similarly to the hotel.
