Item 1057: Houses on Union Street

 File — Box: 1, Folder: 7

Scope and Contents

Printed in 1974 from glass plate negative no.A1057. 1891- 1895. Image depicts an unpaved street with small, wood-framed houses on either side. These houses were probably constructed as employee housing by the Draper Company. A railroad crossing can be seen in the center background, with a large wooden barn-type structure on the left and a two-story commercial building on the right. Union Street extends beyond the railroad crossing, with trees lining the street far into the distance. This is possibly the other end of the street seen in Item 1056, in this folder. Original photograph by the Draper Company. 20.25 x 25.25 cm.
