View of the construction of the City Garage in Pershing Square, Los Angeles, 1951

In the foreground, a large put has been dug and workers are cutting wood and putting in place across the image. Three tall metal rails stick out of the ground in the foreground at right.

In the background at right, two steam shovels are moving dirt. Several large buildings are visible around the pit, including one large structure at center with three flags hanging over the front door.
