This image appears to be a negative photograph, meaning the colors and tones are inverted. It depicts a quiet street scene featuring brick and wooden buildings, likely from the early 20th century. The road is cobblestone, contributing to the historical setting, and there appears to be a lamppost in the foreground. The architecture is detailed, with one taller building showing fire escapes and a mansard roof, suggesting an urban environment. The handwritten text at the bottom of the negative reads "6 W. First St," "Oct. 22, 1913," and "*359-D," providing contextual information about the date and location.

The image is a black-and-white photographic negative showing a street scene with buildings. The perspective is from the corner of a cobblestone street. In the foreground, there is a lamppost. The image features two prominent buildings on the corner. One building is tall with multiple stories, having what appears to be an exterior staircase or fire escape visible on its facade. The second building is shorter with siding and many windows. In the background, additional buildings are visible, along with a fenced area and an empty lot. The negative is marked with text at the bottom, indicating "6 W. First St." on the left and the date "Oct. 22, 1913" on the right, along with a number "*359-D." These suggest this image was likely taken in the early 20th century, capturing architecture and street design from that period.

A mid-sized building with a gabled roof and a clapboard exterior is positioned to the right. There's also a smaller building further down the street and out of focus.
  • Street: The street is made of cobblestones. Some patches of water are visible, suggesting it might have rained recently.
  • Streetlight: A vintage-style streetlight stands on the sidewalk.
  • Signage: There may be signage on the building on the left of the image.

The image is a black-and-white photograph taken on October 22, 1913, depicting a street corner at night. The location is identified as "6 N. First St." The photograph shows a multi-story building with architectural details typical of the early 20th century, including ornate cornices and large windows. The building appears to be a commercial structure, possibly a hotel or office building, with several floors.

To the left of the main building, there is a smaller, adjacent structure with a simpler design. The street in front of the buildings is paved with cobblestones, which are clearly visible in the foreground. A street lamp is positioned near the corner of the building, providing some illumination.

The photograph captures a quiet, possibly deserted street scene, with no visible people or vehicles. The overall atmosphere is serene and somewhat eerie due to the nighttime setting and the absence of activity. The image provides a historical glimpse into urban architecture and streetscapes from over a century ago.
