- Description:
- A composite view of the Tussing Building on the corner of North Washington Avenue and West Ottawa Street. The name "Tussing" can be seen in the building facade above the Rexall drugstore. City Planning Division staff trimmed three photographs for this composite view. Because the images do not match perfectly, gaps have been left in the composition shown. City Planning Division staff placed sequential numbers at the bottom of each piece: "C2", "C3", and "C4". Note that this composite and item 2015-06-003.V5.031 omit coverage of the Palms/Downtown Arts Theatre; it can be seen in other views including 2015-06-003.V2.009; 2015-06-003.V5.012; and 2015-06-003.V5.032.
