This street view captures the bustling commercial heart of a Philippine city -- likely Manila -- at the turn of the twentieth century. Horse-drawn carromatas and calesas ply the cobblestone road alongside tram rails, while two-story buildings with distinctive capiz-shell windows line the thoroughfare. Photographs such as this were frequently collected by American servicemen stationed in the Philippines following the Spanish-American War, documenting the everyday urban life of a city under transition from Spanish to American colonial rule.
