Description
Photograph of an aerial view of the Torrance Flat Glass Company. A cluster of buildings in the center seem to be the focus of the image. The buildings in the center form a rectangular shape when combined while the roofs of many of the buildings are lightly colored with slanted roofs and smokestacks on some. Streets and fields surround the factor while railroad tracks curve through the front of the image.
