Description
Photograph of a room full of workers in Street Design and Construction office, Department of Public Works, [s.d.]. Eleven men in dress shirts, some in ties, sit at long desks and hunch over long rolls of paper. Some use rulers and protractors as they work. Two men in the second row of desks smoke pipes as they work. A calendar hangs from the window of an office in the background. Daylight shines in from the windows along the right wall.
