Behind it, on the same side of the street, is the "Baptist" Church. A large building without a steeple or chimney, is the Episcopal Church. Houses and other buildings line the streets on the right. The trees on the right are labeled "Button wood;" the trees in front of the Baptist Church are identified as poplars in Barber's text.
