Part of Richards Studio Photographs
On a gray January day in 1941 a lone pedestrian was photographed as he walked north in the 1500 bloc of Pacific Avenue. Behind him the Northern Pacific tracks cut across Pacific and climb Hood Street. The dome of Union Station dominates the skyline. Across from the train depot stand the West Coast Grocery Company and the Russell T. Joy Building. The Depot Service Station, at the far right, occupies the little triangle of land between South 17th and Hood.
