Panoramic view from 1909

Panoramic view of Plaza Ferdinand VII, City Hall, and the Pensacola Opera House from 1909. The image was taken from Zaragoza Street looking north on Jefferson Street. The American National Bank Building, under construction at the time, can be seen in the background. See the 1909 article for similar panoramic images produced by the Haines Photo Company.
