Construction of the first floor of a new wing of the Mount Wilson Observatory office building, Pasadena. Concrete bricks form the walls. An unidentified construction worker is seen working in front of the construction; he stands near a concrete mixer and bags of dry concrete. A portion of the existing office building is seen at the far left. A truck is parked between the existing building and the one under construction. Trees are seen in the distant background.
