Description

People walking towards a fire at Fresno's Southern Pacific Railroad Depot located at Tulare and H streets. This is possibly the 1911 fire that damaged upstairs offices. The depot was constructed entirely of brick and topped with a slate bellcast hip roof. The depot remains one of the few examples of the Queen Anne style in Fresno.
