- From a series of six photographs showing the effects of Dutch elm disease, this photograph from the 1980s shows both sides of Pearl St. empty where impressive elm trees once stood. In the left of the frame two smaller buildings sit next to a tall brick building. Further on in the distance one can make out large multiple story buildings and evergreen trees. On the opposite side of the street a post office and a large office building sit on the corner of Elmwood St.

- Description:
- This image is taken of Pearl Street on a busy afternoon. On the right side of the image the post office and a large office building can be seen on the corner of Pearl Street and Elmwood Street. On the left stands a tall building with a strip of smaller buildings leading their way into the distance. Both cars and bikers line the street, there are even protesters who stand in front of a black iron fence on the right side of the image at the streetlight. Blue mountains and further streetlights can be seen down the road in the distance.
This image is very similar to the one taken in 1980 during the time when Dutch Elm disease decimated the elm tree population in the area. The buildings are the same in both images, yet there is a much greater presence of plant and tree life in the 2009 image. Also, Pearl Street in 2009 is buzzing with commotion, while the street in 1980 seems almost deserted.
