Description
A large crane with a lattice boom is positioned within a fenced-off construction site in front of a low, modern-style brick building. A “DANGER KEEP OUT” sign is attached to the fence near the foreground, along with a caution barricade. Tall grass grows along the outside of the fence, and rows of houses are visible in the background under a clear blue sky.
