North Main Street

Image

View down commercial Main Street, looking north. A pedestrian (blurred from movement) is crossing the street along what appear to be railroad tracks. There is a painted advertisement for Richards and Buffington beer by the Dubuque Brewing and Malting Company. Pedestrians are on the sidewalk, and a man is driving a horse-drawn wagon.
