Numerous businesses line the street, including the Douglass Square Pharmacy and Slade's Restaurant. Billboards advertise Sunoco and H. P. Hood products. Political campaign signs for re-electing Paul A. Dever for governor and Ryan Dacey for clerk of the State Judicial Court hang on building walls. The campaign headquarters for Banks for representative is located on the left side of Tremont Street. The shadow of the photographer can be seen in the foreground of the image. The fifth anniversary of the dedication of Frederick Douglass Square was celebrated in 1921.
