View is to the northeast from the Moorhead end of the Main Avenue bridge over the Red River. Visible are numerous businesses, mostly saloons, some decorated with flags and bunting, lining the north side of Main Avenue including the Inter-State Saloon, A. J. Rustad's Saloon and the Workingman's Home Hotel. A pile of bridge plank sits on the north side of Main Avenue at left; men and horse-drawn wagons stand on the bridge and street. A clock hangs in the middle of a billboard for General Arthur Cigars at extreme left, reading 9:52 and around the clock are the words "U. S. Observatory Time Hourly By W. U. Tel. Co."
View is to north from the Moorhead side of the Red River showing the wreckage after a steam tractor, separator, water tank and a team of horses fell through Main Avenue bridge on April 15, 1902. Two men were injured and the horses were killed.
