Description
Photograph of a crane being used to lower sections of pipe into an incomplete storm drain, [s.d.]. At right, a mobile crane is positioned on two tracks made of wood, leaning over the edge of a narrow ditch. Suspended from the crane's arm a section of concrete pipe hangs. Below, the pipeline extends from the distance, three men visible on top, the center-most man at the bottom of a wooden ladder that leads out of the trench. Farther in the distance, a second crane can be seen.
