This photograph was taken from the Dayton Daily News building on Fourth Street. Looking east, the Davies Building, home of Newsalt's Jewelry Store, Reed Shoe Company, and Dayton Savings & Trust, is visible in the center of the photograph. The building on the left of the photograph was the home of the Dayton Loan & Credit Company Bank. At its height, flood waters in this area reached the second stories of the buildings pictured.
