DescriptionThis photograph overlooks a river or estuary with buildings of a city or town visible along the water in the background. Among these buildings are what appear to be industrial buildings, some with high smokestacks. A building crane is visible in the left background. Closer to the foreground is a road that runs along the closest bank of the river. People are visible on a sidewalk next to this road, and a park area overlooking the river is also visible.
NotesSubject Note: The exact location of the factories is unknown, but they were probably somewhere in central Connecticut.
