Description

In this scene which looks west up 5th Street, a large Victorian-style home may be seen. A turret on the southeast side of the home, as well as the mansard roof are clearly visible. The east side of the lot is buttressed by a tall stone wall constructed of native limestone. A partial view of a smaller, two story home may also be seen next to the street. The number 1288 is written on a label that has been stuck to the lower left corner of the slide.
