People standing on sidewalks in the downtown area of Newburgh, IN. The street in the center, running down to the river, is State St. The cross street is Jennings St. The building with the turret is the Exchange Hotel at 1 W. Jennings St., built in 1841. It served as an armory and hospital during the Civil War. Those standing on the street corner are holding a sign that cannot be read, but perhaps they are protesting something?
