Looking east on Washington Street. Frances Hogg in middle on light pole. According to the 1911 Sanborn Fire Insurance Map of Appleton, this location is most likely the corner of Washington Street and Oneida Street. If so, the students are standing on the steps of the post office. Behind them would be a hotel and livery, and across the street a garage and mixed use building can be seen.
