Description
Photograph of the construction of a large building, possibly in Los Angeles's Chinatown, [s.d.]. The construction site can be seen in the foreground. Several large cranes can be seen in the rectangular site, and the ground is littered with metal beams. Several small structures can be seen near the bases of the cranes. A tall, three-story building with a terracotta tile roof can be seen in the background at left. American flags fly from its roof. Legible signs include, from left: "Fords", "IXL Auto Market", and "Auto Park".
