DescriptionThis image depicts the exterior of the Occidental Life building at the corner of Third Street and Gold Avenue in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The building is made of light-colored stone and is lined with stone archways directly above the sidewalk. The corner of the building facing the camera has a large crest on it with wording on it that reads "Occidental Life Building". Openings in the stonework can be seen above each archway. These openings take the shape of four-leaf clovers. A single street light can be seen on the left side of the sidewalk's corner near the building while another street light can be seen across the street closer to the left side of the frame. The paved intersection can be seen in the foreground of the photograph.On View
