Photo is identified as East Bay Street at Market Street. Originally identified as the approach to the Custom House, 4/12/07. This photo is presumably taken from the steps to the U.S. Custom House, looking across the street at the buildings across the street where the Market Street Pavilion currently stands. In the background are the market stalls on Market Street to the west of East Bay Street and a portion of Market street on the east side of East Bay Street.
