Description
Photograph of construction of the Slauson Avenue storm drain, showing a grassy hill in the background, [s.d.]. Several men work with small pipes at the center of the trench in the foreground. The ground around them is muddy and collects small pools of water. Many more men work on a large, wooden frame further back while a small building stand on top of the dirt wall above them on the left. Thin, short trees stand in front of a grass hill in the right background while many more trees stand at the back of the trench in the distance.
