Mystery Photos: Guess the Location

Here is another "mystery photo" where you're invited to guess where this picture was taken. It looks a lot different now, about 115 years after this image was taken.
As always, feel free to give your opinions in the comments link. I'll post the answer within a week or so, unless someone beats me to it.

  2. I guess this one was too easy. My fault -- even though I read the address correctly, I pictured in my mind a different intersection.

    It is the intersection of Hancock and East Monroe Streets. The building on the south corner is the same, and maybe the one on the north corner, too (with a lot of renovation).
