The point where the photographer stood was approximately at 3800 Jasper Street, south of Buckius Street, looking south to A. J. Cameron Worsted Yard processing plant, the factory built at Glenwood Ave and Castor Ave, stretching to Pacific Street.

The point where the photographer stood was approximately at 3800 Jasper Street, south of Buckius, looking north to Buckius. House in center next to tree still stands. Row houses to left torn down from the 30s to the 50s. Most of houses to the right still standing. To the right, the wooden back fence of the Isaac Schlichter Mansion, 3832 Frankford Ave, front side of property, torn down in the 20s or 30s. At the end of these pipes at the next intersection where Jasper street takes a slight turn right toward Frankford Ave. at Pike Street, will be the back football field of Northeast Catholic High School, now Whatchamacallit Charter School. I grew up on this street just beyond the tree.

"Benjamin Franklin presides appropriately over the scene opposite the State House from his pedestal on the corner of the Ledger Building's imposing facade. Built in 1867, this was the home of the Ledger until it was sold in 1914"

Select and Common Councils of Philadelphia, which met in the State House from 1854 to 1895, were probably in session when this photograph was taken from a building standing opposite across Chestnut Street.
