The image shows an aerial survey photograph of an urban area. Most of the landscape is filled with tightly packed residential streets arranged in a grid. Several diagonal roads cut through the grid, creating irregular blocks. Toward the center and right, small clusters of open land and fields interrupt the otherwise dense housing. Industrial buildings and facilities appear in the lower portion, near the rail lines crossing the bottom right. Additional undeveloped land is visible on the far right side. The number “8226-160” is written in the top right corner, and the bottom right is labeled “Fairchild Aerial Surveys Inc N.Y.C.”.
