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

A row of single-story abandoned residential houses is seen through a chain-link fence in the foreground at the Love Canal Chemical Waste Landfill site, Niagara Falls, New York. The homes are shaded, with closed windows and no visible activity. The ground in front of the fence appears unkempt, with patches of dirt and grass. The scene suggests restricted access or abandonment.
