Artifact Overview
Streetcars, with their tracks and overhead wires, line the bottom of this canyonlike view of Boston's Washington Street, just a few blocks from Boston Common. The photographer took this picture from Clark's Hotel. Besides streetcars, Bostonians in this photograph are also choosing automobiles, horse-drawn vehicles, and walking. In right foreground a man takes a break from the Puritan Dental Co.
