Digital scan of a sepia-toned photo of the underpinning on the eastern face of the brick building at 202 Randolph Street, put in place during the construction of the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel, as viewed from the northwest. A beam buttressing the front of the building adjacent on the north extends across a ditch dug in the street in the foreground. Two workers sit on barrels on the south side of the excavation. A worker stands among the underpinnings of 202 Randolph in the background on the right.
