Across the street on the left two women are standing on the sidewalk, and another woman is standing near a shed which appears to be full of fuelwood. In the foreground a horse and wagon are parked next to a sign for the DePere House on a post above the sidewalk. Further down on the right is a sign shaped like a shoe, and further down is a sign shaped like a shirt or coat. Caption reads: "South Broadway about 1870 (business section) DePere.
