Love Canal Chemical Waste Landfill (Niagara Falls, N.Y.)

View through a chain-link fence of a large, muddy, cleared lot with uneven piles of dirt. A few construction vehicles are visible in the distance on the right. Sparse trees and residential structures line the edge of the area, and the sky is overcast, creating a dull, bluish tone across the scene.
