Summary

[General description] Taken from an elevated position, this photograph shows Port Adelaide buildings on both sides of the unsealed road, where the railway tracks are plainly visible. On the right a group of men lounge in front of the corner turret of the Customs House. On the left are shops and W.H.Harvey's Commercial Hotel. Further down the road is Crooks & Brooker, ironmongers and general furnishers. A dray carrying bales, some horse drawn carts and a man pushing a hand barrow are seen in the street which has a cobblestone crossing for pedestrians. [On back of photograph] 'Commercial Road, Port Adelaide, looking south from the river. / Nov. 1911.' [Duplicate of B 4396.]
