Description
Photograph of an aerial view of the McKinley Home for Boys, showing tract housing in the background, [s.d.]. Four long boarding houses can be seen at center, all angled in towards a single point in the foreground. At that point, an oval of what appears to be a swimming pool can be seen just back from a stretch of highway that spans the width of the image. Multiple rows of tract housing can be seen towards the top of the image, separated from the Boys' home by two narrow stretches of road and a swath of trees.
