• This may be 8th Street looking north from Oak Street. The building at the right of the frame looks like the Finnish hall and school building, with the open lots where the Morrison School was built later just beyond. That would make the steeple under construction the Finnish National Lutheran Church, and the little spire in front of it the Norwegian ME Church. - Jeremiah Mason
