Description
Photograph of a cleared lot as viewed from the west side of Grand Avenue looking south from 3rd Street, April 1, 1986. A dirt lot can be seen at center with some piles of lumber towards the back of the lot. A chain-link fence encloses the lot. A road is visible at left and continues into the background. A one-way sign can be seen on a street lamp at left. Several skyscrapers can be seen behind the lot, while weeds grow on the incline in the extreme left foreground. A paved road is visible below the incline in the right foreground. Donated by Jim Lewis.
