Photograph of a main street with historic buildings in Abilene, Texas. The street starts in the foreground on the left and runs into the background on the right. There are several buildings visible on the lefthand side of the street, including a tower-like skyscraper in the background. The building closest to the foreground features a long front with several equally-spaced windows, a second floor balcony, and a myriad of historic decorative elements such as large balustrades on the roof. Many of the other buildings on the street have very similar features. Trees, potted bushes, and street lights line the sidewalks. Traffic lights are visible suspended over the street. There is a large bushy tree beside the road on the righthand side with a car parked underneath it.

Photograph of a historic plaque detailing the exploits of the 45th Infantry Division at Camp Barkeley. It reads: "45th Infantry Division at Camp Barkeley.
