DescriptionAmateur photographs of the intersection of two large streets. A traffic light hangs from wires in the middle of the intersection. Electric street lights are on the street corners. A large sign that reads "TEXACO" is in front of a service station which is not visible in any of the photographs. A manhole cover is in the street. Two houses, apparently multiple-family dwellings, stand vacant on a street corner with a white wooden street sign that reads "PROSPECT AVENUE" and "BOULEVARD" in vertical lettering. One house appears to have storefront windows on the first floor. A crane is in the background of one photograph.
