Description
Photograph of the exterior of the Columbia Steel Corporation, July 1928. A large building composed of two rectangular structures stuck together with slanted walls sits in the center. The face of the building sits on the left while the body extends to the right. The long side walls of the edifice are not paneled on the back half. In the foreground, a line of cars are parked in front of a green strip of land that sits to the front side of the building. To the right, a brick garage can be seen with two open entryways while construction materials are strewn about the land to the left of the building.
