Description
Photograph of a busy construction site, [s.d.]. Workers wearing overalls and hats can be seen throughout the site. Many can be seen pushing wheelbarrows. What appear to be sand bags can be seen in a pile at right, while wooden planks are laid across the ground throughout the site. One wooden tower is visible at left, while a second wooden tower is visible at right. Machinery is visible towards the background. A man wearing a suit and hat can be seen standing above the site on a small hill in the left foreground. Buildings are visible in the background, including a Victorian styled building at center.
