South Main Street from the Grubb Building

South Main Street, from Grubb Building. Salisbury N.C.

Theo. Buerbaum would often go to a location and just aim his camera in four different directions.  Apparently after the Grubb Building was completed, he went to the top and photographed the city looking North, South, East, and West.  From this direction, the Stand Pipe is prominent and the streetcar tracks are also visible in the center of Main Street. 

No series no. The Albertype Co. Brooklyn, NY
