Scope and content
Two unidentified men are pictured gazing down in February of 1936 at the 160-foot deep gulch that will soon be spanned by the new $123,000 East 34th Street Bridge (West). They are standing on scaffolding next to a large crane probably from the Holroyd Co. The well-dressed unidentified man in the foreground has on a cap, striped jacket with dress shirt and tie, trousers and knee-high workman's boots.
