Description
Photograph of flood damage shown in street and large mansion, [s.d.]. In the foreground near center, a woman wearing a hat and long dress can be seen sitting on a bench in the middle of the street. To the left and right of the woman, small amounts of debris can be seen littering the road. To the far left, a large utility pole can be seen. Overhead, utility wires hang haphazardly in a tangled mess. In the background to the left, three individuals can be seen walking on the road near an automobile. To the far right, a group of individuals can be seen on a sidewalk near a large house. At center, a large two-story mansion can be seen. The top border of the mansion appears to be damaged, and a large section of the roof is missing. Statues and crates litter the sidewalk near the front of the mansion. A man can be seen admiring one of the statues near center.
