View down Water Street. The buildings on the left side of the street have their awnings down, and the buildings on the right, which is in shade, have them folded up. A drug store and dentist's office are on the left. A doctor's office, restaurant and a shoe shop are on the right. Automobiles are parked along the curb, and horse-drawn vehicles are in the distance. Bicycles are leaning against storefronts, and pedestrians walk along the sidewalk.
