This black-and-white aerial photograph shows a waterfront area combining residential, industrial, and transportation infrastructure. At the top, the shoreline is lined with docks and piers extending into the water. Dense rows of houses fill the center, arranged in a grid of intersecting streets with a few diagonal roads breaking the pattern. Toward the bottom, extensive rail yards with multiple tracks connect to large industrial complexes and warehouses. Parks or open spaces are visible near the upper right. The label “Fairchild Aerial Surveys Inc. N.Y.C.” is printed in the lower right corner, and the number “8226-232” is written in the upper right.
