Photographs, Black and White ; 24 x 18 cm.
The image shows an aerial survey photograph of a shoreline and harbor area. The upper half is occupied by open water, with piers and breakwaters extending into the lake or river. Several ships are docked along the shoreline and within a narrow inlet. On the left, clusters of industrial buildings are visible near the water’s edge, connected by roads. The lower section includes open land, roads, and smaller water channels linked to the main shoreline. A large diagonal shadow is cast across part of the water. The number “8226-18” is written in the top right, and the bottom right corner is labeled “Fairchild Aerial Surveys Inc N.Y.C.”.
