This black-and-white aerial photograph shows a mix of farmland and developing urban settlement. The left and upper portions consist mostly of open agricultural fields divided into large plots with scattered houses and small clusters of trees. Toward the lower right, a more densely built town area is visible, with a grid of streets and buildings. Rail lines cut diagonally through the center of the image, linking the rural and urban areas. Some cleared lots and excavation sites are visible, particularly near the bottom left. The label “Fairchild Aerial Surveys Inc. N.Y.C.” is printed in the lower right corner, and the number “8226-251” is written in the upper right.
