Description
Color postcard (14 x 9 cm.) with a birds-eye view looking north along 16th Street from Harney Street, in Omaha, Nebraska. The large building in the upper left is the New York Life Building at the northeast corner of 17th & Farnam. The conical topped building on the right hand side of the street is the Paxton Block at the northeast corner of 16th & Farnam. A sign for the Schlitz Cafe and Hotel is also seen on the building at the northwest corner of 16th & Harney. At the far end of 16th street on the west side is the clock tower for the old post office building. The image was probably taken from the sixteen story City National Bank building built on the southeast corner of 16th & Harney. There are several pedestrians and early model cars seen. The title "16th Street, looking North from Harney Street, Omaha, Nebr." is in the top left corner of the card.
