A tinted view of the South Dakota State Penitentiary at Sioux Falls, with its tall round water tower at left and the long cell-block and administration buildings behind a lawn and roadway. The penitentiary was established at Sioux Falls in the 1880s, and its stone-walled complex on the north side of the city remained the state's main prison into modern times. A small group of figures stands near the base of the tower in the foreground.
