View from Reservoir Hill (1)

Schuyler C. Baldwin - 1870s

The view looks southwest from Reservoir Hill toward the downtown area and the Grand River. In the upper right corner is the Bridge St. Bridge, and in the upper left corner the Pearl St. Bridge. Beyond that is the former railroad bridge now known as the Blue Bridge. The area in the foreground is the base of Reservoir Hill. Ionia St. runs below the nearest row of houses, and they were probably located between Newberry and Mason.
