Description
A similar view to that shown in KirchinOther26 photo.
A work crew is photographed while laying Durax cubes in a pattern. This intersection on Pearl Road is just a few blocks from the Brooklyn-Brighton Bridge project shown in KirchinOther21. There are several advertisements and signs which point to the location of this work. On the top left corner building entry is a street sign for 'Henninger Road, SW'. There are also advertisements for Honest Scrap (Chewing Tobacco) and Pilsener Beer (made in Cleveland). Notice the barefoot boy pulling a wagon of some type. Also, there is a small advertisement in the window of the store (next to the American flag). I believe it is announcing a 'Base Ball' event.
