Description
Photograph of construction of beach groins, showing a machine laying the cement slabs in place, 1953. A finely dressed couple stands on the left watching four men work on the new beach groin at center. An appendage of a large machine reaches from the dug up sand on the right to the row of carefully leaning concrete slabs that continue to the rocks and grassy hills on the far left. A small, lightly-colored house stands beneath two large, dark trees behind the groin, in the background on the right.
