Main Street, New Ulm, Minnesota, circa 1905
Add to SetSummary
This shadowy photograph of an unpaved street might make you think that this town was small, empty. But look again. The town of New Ulm was a brewing center in a fertile agricultural region in southern Minnesota. Several wagons are parked at the dry goods and groceries shop at right. Arc lights hang in the foreground, ready to illuminate the town.
