Breiteweg literally translates as Broadway and this view taken about 100 years ago in the German city of Magdebeburg shows what was one of the important thoroughfares at the time. A couple of electric trams with trailers are next to a new fangled horseless carriage; the rest of the traffic is horse-drawn.
The city was destroyed in WW2 and rebuilt in brutalist style in the 1950s; all these buildings have gone, although tram lines are still there.
