The Family Theater (screening the 1950 film "Jackpot") in the Kirkwood Hotel, the Cadillac Square Building, a candy store, Gregory Mayer, and Thom Company, Cadillac Tower, the New Cadillac Square Apartments, the Wayne County Building, Goodwill Industries on Congress Street, and the First National Building housing the National Bank of Detroit, and the Michigan Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument are all visible. Electric streetcars, buses, cars, trucks--including one marked "Burnham, Stoepel and Company"--and pedestrians are in the streets. Traces of snow remain on the ground.
