| Transcription | "This view was taken from the foot of what is now Center avenue in Moorhead, which was then known as Front street. There was then no bridge from Center Avenue in Moorhead to N.P. avenue in Fargo. The bridges shown are the N.P. bridge and the old South bridge." - Identification by James Fay, 1954, and typed on identification sheet. |
