A candid and evocative photograph capturing the raw character of Astoria, Oregon, at the corner of 13th St and Exchange St. The scene is dominated by a weathered, single-story body shop with its facade partially overgrown by vegetation, suggesting an atmosphere of urban decay or closure. In stark contrast, a stately, historic Victorian home with a large bay window sits high on the steep, wooded hill behind the shop. The wet asphalt and overcast sky emphasize the moody, authentic atmosphere of this coastal town.
