Description
Photograph of exterior aerial view of an unidentified factory, ca.1940. At center, the massive square exterior of an unidentified factory is visible. Parts of the factory rooftop are ridged and raised. A large plane at the midpoint of the building is completely flat unlike the rest of the roof, and it is seen connecting one side of the factory to the other. Bits of various equipment are also seen scattered on the rooftop. In the foreground of the factory, a small rectangular building lined with windows and a large central doorway is visible. Two small patches of lawn sit adjacent to the building on either side. Further to the left and right, small parking lots filled with automobiles can be seen. In the extreme foreground, lines of automobiles sit parked on the sides of a large street. In the extreme background, large amounts of automobiles are seen parked around the factory.
