A view looks down Pryor Street in downtown Atlanta, with tall brick commercial blocks lining both sides, pedestrians on the sidewalks, and a horse-drawn wagon and carriage in the unpaved street. In the early 1900s Pryor Street was part of Atlanta's busy commercial district, where wholesale houses, stores, and offices served a city still tied closely to the railroad. The mix of foot traffic and horse-drawn vehicles reflects downtown street life before automobiles became common.
