The view is to the southeast from the north side of Front Street (now Center Avenue) just west of 4th Street North. Workers are paving Front Street with cut cedar logs which were placed on end over a fir plank base. On the corner, across the intersection, stands Ole E. Flaten's Photo Gallery. On top of the pole at the corner, a telephone lineman strings wire. Two unidentified young African American men stand in the middle of the intersection.
