DescriptionClose-up of trolley tracks in a paved road. Segment of street corner visible shows two bicycles leaning against the curb of the paved sidewalk. Several men and a few women stand on the sidewalk. Men wear hats, jackets, and pants, and some have bow ties. One man holds a rolled-up newspaper, another examines something in his hand, and a third leans against a utility pole. A boy with his back to the camera holds what appear to be newspapers under his arm. The commercial building in the background has Corinthian style rectangular piers and columns. A sign above a striped awning reads: "The Hatch & North / Coal Co." There is a statue of a seated lion to the far left edge of the frame.
