The imposing Adler Building, with its ornate facade, stands proudly at the center, while the Jacobson Pawnbrokers' store, with its distinctive signage, can be seen on the left. The narrow, cobblestone street is filled with an eclectic mix of people and transportation. Horse-drawn carts and wagons jostle for space with pedestrians, creating a lively and chaotic atmosphere. The passengers on the carts seem engrossed in their conversations, while the shoppers on the sidewalks are busy haggling over prices at the various stores and shops that line the street.
