Description
Colorized photo from 1886
Original title: Fish Alley
Location: Chinatown, San Francisco
It was hard to know what year this was taken in, but it was before 1906, because that's when the earthquake hit and it leveled a good chunk of this area. So I gave it the lowest date range.
Life must have been tough in those days. An open air butcher does have its advantages, fresh air blowing in, easy to people watch. But the smell of the fish, manure from the horses, the scuz everywhere, must have taken a while to get used to.
