Description
Photograph was edited for publication purposes
Photograph caption dated October 26, 1959 reads "A view of surfacing work may be seen in picture above. Traffic must be re-routed in vicinity of each phase of operation so that ample room for the work will be provided and for safety of public. Surfacing work gives little hint of work done underground." Pictured is the intersection of Lankershim and Victory boulevards. The work is part of the Valley flood control project.; See images #00118554 through #00118559 for all photos in this series.
