Description
Photographs, Black and White ; 24 x 18 cm.
The black and white aerial photograph shows farmland divided into rectangular and irregular fields, with a concentration of houses and streets along the left side of the image. A large rail yard with multiple tracks extends across the upper portion, intersected by several diagonal roads and additional rail spurs. A mix of open fields, scattered buildings, and industrial-looking structures occupy the central area. A curving waterway with tree cover appears at the lower left. In the upper right corner, handwritten text reads “8226-40.” In the lower right corner, printed text states: “FAIRCHILD AERIAL SURVEYS INC. N.Y.C.”
