Thirteen structures, located on three levels, are visible in this image taken from 17th Street in Dubuque, Iowa. A chain link fence is visible in the foreground. Laundry may be seen hanging from a line hung between two buildings in the center of the image. A ladder, propped against a small building, is also visible. Two levels of terraces, constructed of native limestone, can be seen. The largest home, which has two circular turrets, has been constructed atop the highest portion of the terraced bluff. No leaves are visible on the trees in this image. The number 1289-2 is written on a label that has been stuck to the lower left corner of the slide.
