A photographic view of downtown Lorain, Ohio looking north and northwest from Sixth Street. The Citizens Savings Bank is visible in the left foreground. This appears to be a daytime view of Broadway Avenue, and a number of pedestrians can be seen walking up and down the street.

The date of 1905 written on the photograph appears to be accurate, given the attire of the pedestrians and the lack of automobiles visible on Broadway. The photographer is unknown.
