Description
Photograph of the Broadway Tunnel looking north from Temple Street at the time of the leveling of Fort Moore Hill, 1949. The tunnel can be seen at center in the base of a tall concrete wall. A paved road is visible in the foreground at center, and a low fence separates the road from the tunnel, which appears to be closed. A five-story building can be seen at right.
