Street view of Gainsboro Road. There are cars driving down the street. On the left side are buildings, most being businesses. The closest building is wooden and has two images of fish on the front. "Martian Fresh Fish", is written on the side of the store. There are other signs advertising products such as "Coak-Cola", and "Kool Ciggretto", and "Pepsi Cola". A man has his hand on the doorknob of the front door. Next to this store is a barbershop. A brick building can be seen on the street corner. A road separates the next buildings, likely Harrison Avenue. Farther in the distance down Gainsboro Road is a church, likely Mount Zion AME Church. On the right side of the drawing is a large open green space, where people can be seen walking, biking, and sitting at a picnic table.
