A wide commercial street in 1870s Omaha descends toward the Missouri River bluff as pedestrians gather on a board sidewalk. Their collective attention suggests a public occasion, a moment captured by local photographer Frank F. Currier. This uncatalogued view offers a specific ground level vantage, a departure from the era's more common bird's eye cityscapes.
