Description	A photograph taken on Church Street in Nashville, Tennessee at dusk, circa 1936. According to the annotated note on the verso this is one of two photographs "taken on Church Street at Polk Place about 20 minutes apart at dusk. The date was probably 1936. The Warner (now Sudekum) Building is in the distance with the old Watkins Building somewhat closer." According to the 1937 Nashville City Directory, the Sudekum Building was located at the corner of Church and Sixth at 535 Church Street and the Watkins Institute Building at 605 Church Street. Some of the other businesses in the locale include the Broadway National Bank branch (716 Church Street); the Claude P. Street Piano Company (717 Church Street).
