(inherited from source) - Description:
- Black and white photograph showing the 4th Street overpass spanning the Downtown Expressway in Richmond, Virginia; view looking northeast; John Marshall Hotel and Second Presbyterian Church visible in distance. __The donor and photographer was trying to recreate views from a facsimile reprint of "Illustrated Guide to Richmond, The Confederate Capital" from the City Intelligencer of 1862. The images in this collection were rejects from the project.<br />This image is possibly referencing a wood engraving from a drawing by William L. Sheppard in Harper's Weekly (April 6, 1861) showing the Virginia State Armory at the foot of 5th Street near the James River and Kanawha Canal. Geographic Description: Richmond, Va. --Gamble's Hill (Richmond, Va.) --4th Street (Richmond, Va.) --City Center (Richmond, Va.)
