Looking Downtown, 1930

Looking east along the river to downtown, with the skyline of the city in the distance. The Indiana State House is to the left. Smokestacks to the right were only one cause of pollution in the river at this time. The city failed to meet the minimum federal and state standards on untreated sewage in the river for decades. | Date: 1930 | Source: W.H.
