Military Plaza

Photo crop exposure date: unknown.
Exposure date (or window) of subject photo: ca. 1877.
Subject: Photo crop of Military Plaza. View is west along Commerce Street. Taken from a point in the middle of Commerce Street just east of L. Moke’s Store. Past Moke’s there are two small stores ( drawn in somewhat taller than they actually are), then the entrance to a wagon yard alongside and behind Moke’s Store, then the two-story Charity Hospital that will become St. Joseph’s Orphan Asylum at the corner of Cameron Street. The next two story, across Cameron, is a saloon.
