SNAPSHOT IN TIME: Intersection of California & Oregon Streets, circa 1890.

This circa 1890 image of Redding captures an intriguing view at the intersection of California & Yuba Streets. An open space is visible with a rocky waterway and several buildings in the background. The buildings belong to D. Breslauer, the Miller and Eaton Drug Store, the Paragon Hotel, and the City Drug Store. A lonely tree appears in the middle of a lot and that lot is now the present site of the Lorenz Hotel.
