The image offers a remarkable view of the Mississippi River waterfront in St. Louis, Missouri during a flood on June 16th of that year. Transporting us to an era long gone, the photograph showcases the resilience and adaptability of the city's residents as they navigate through challenging circumstances.

From bridges connecting different parts of town to buildings standing tall along the riverside, every detail tells its own story. A carousel collection adds a touch of whimsy to this otherwise serious situation. As we explore further, our eyes are drawn towards docked riverboats and steamboats moored alongside gangplanks—a testament to St. Louis' reliance on water transport for trade and commerce during this period.
