The view is taken from the Texas Pavilion for Women, facing east. On the right of the photograph is the Isaac Solomon Synagogue, originally known as the Beth Jacob Synagogue. In the distant background is the Tower of Hope on the Main Building. The JCRS was a sanatorium for tuberculosis patients that was founded in 1904 by a group of immigrant Jewish workingmen along with the support of several leading physicians and rabbis in Denver, Colorado. It was located on West Colfax Avenue just outside of Denver.
