Description: View looking north along State Street in Chicago's Loop district, described as the world's busiest corner. The scene shows tall commercial buildings lining both sides of the wide street, with period automobiles, streetcars, and pedestrians visible. A Bond clothing store sign and a partially visible billboard are among the street-level details captured in this mid-century linen-era view.
