Construction of the computer room addition at the base of the 150-foot tower telescope, Mount Wilson Observatory. The structure appears to have walls of corrugated metal, and a stone or brick foundation. A ladder leans against a part of the building. A small portion of the tower's base can be seen at the far left. Trees are seen at the far right and behind the new structure.
