Description
Photograph of a construction project in an area filled with dirt and debris, [s.d.]. Broken pieces of piping and wood are strewn across the dirt piles at center. Automobiles sit parked along with horses on a road on the far right. Trees line the far side of the road while electrical poles line the near side. A machine secretes smoke in the background as it moves through the disturbed dirt.
