Looking down Van Ness Ave. from O'Farrell St. right after the earthquake. Van Ness was going to be made the main street in San Francisco -- the Emporium and the White House and others moved out there after the earthquake, but as soon as they could get back on Market St., back they went -- it never materialized. City Hall ruins, left. [Photograph by Dressler.] :370
