Providence City Scape
Photo taken by L Baker, 1903, from the Manchester Street Generating Station Smokestack, of Providence, RI. This image and some of the following text was borrowed from the Art In Ruins website ArtInRuins.com.
"So much has changed in this photo, the State House is really the only recognizable object." "On the waterfront, you can make out the monitor roof of the RISD Industrial design building. Behind that, the white steeple of the First Baptist church is still visible. In the left side, you can see the tall curved edge of the Imperial Knife building. Davol Square is at the bottom front, but barely recognizable. The South Street Power plant hadn't been built yet."
