DescriptionUtility wires crisscross above the intersection of two streets. A traffic light hangs over the intersection; a second traffic light is at the far right. A fire call box is on a nearby utility pole and a street light is nearby. Street signs and advertising signs are on other poles. A railroad overpass crosses the street in the background. A catenary system of overhead wires runs along the railroad line. What appears to be a factory building is at the far left; a commercial building with an illegible sign is at the far right. Leafless trees are on the railroad embankment and in the background.
