This photograph, taken circa 1905, offers a bird's-eye view of Manchester, New Hampshire, USA, during the early 1900s. The image showcases an intricate urban landscape, filled with various buildings and industries that were integral to the region's growth during this period. In the foreground, the distinctive red and white signs of the Cavenaugh Brothers' Uneeda Biscuits Company stand out prominently. The company, which was founded in 1896, was a significant player in the biscuit industry and produced a wide range of biscuit varieties. The signs, with their bold lettering and vibrant colors, effectively advertise the company's products to the community. Adjacent to the biscuit factory, the Hub Ranges Company and Kimball Carriage Company factories can also be seen. These industries were essential contributors to Manchester's economy, with the Hub Ranges Company specializing in cast-iron stoves and the Kimball Carriage Company manufacturing horse-drawn carriages. The image also reveals the Slayton Wood Yard, which was a bustling hub for timber trade. The yard, located near the Manchester Riverfront, was a vital source of raw materials for the city's industries. The photograph provides a fascinating glimpse into Manchester's industrial past, showcasing the diverse range of businesses and industries that thrived in the city during the early 1900s.
