Barthelemy Family at the southwestcorner of their home. The exact date is unknown. Possibly the late 1920's. We are looking to the east, with College Hill rising off the right side of the image. Although obscured by the grassy slope in this image, Washington Street lies behind the people in the photograph but before the homes in the background.

​This photo appears to have been taken through the rear window of an automobile. We are looking north down Washington Street. Skinner Butte and the Coburg Hills are visible in the distance.

​This photo is taken from Jefferson Street, looking towards the east and the rear of 2162 Washington Street.

​Looking towards the southeast and College Hill. The EWEB water tower (constructed in 1939) is visible to the right of the photograph in the distance.

This photo was taken close to 19th Avenue and Washington Street facing the southeast and College Hill. The empty land in the foreground would be developed into Washington Park. The row of houses in the background is 21st Avenue

​Sidewalks are present in this picture, probably from the 1940's. In the background, note the western slopes of Skinner Butte and the distant Coburg Hills.

​This photograph appears to have been taken near the intersection of Washington and 18th or 19th facing south down Washington Street. College Hill is rising in the distance. As sidewalks are present, this photo was likely taken in the mid to late 1940's.
