Description
Photograph of a view of Spring Street, north of Temple Street, showing construction and automobiles, [s.d.]. The unpaved lanes of Spring Street run from the foreground into the left background, the dirt marked by several sets of tire tracks. Workers and construction equipment occupy the road in the centerground, to the right of two parked automobiles. A sign on the hillside at the right edge of the image reads "Beverly Blvd 3680. Washington 1321. Builders. Realtors. Insurers. Engineering Contractors". A large factory-type building sits to the left of the road, while other commercial buildings are visible in the right background. City Hall can be seen at the hazy horizon.
