The aftermath of the Boston Molasses Flood of January 1919. The original site of the collapsed molasses tank is toward the upper left of the image. Wreckage of the tank is visible in the center and upper right of the photo near the light-colored warehouse. The remains of other buildings and homes destroyed by the molasses and swept into the North End Park are visible in the foreground. The damaged Boston Elevated Railroad track lies along the left edge of the picture.
