Sepia-toned photo of an Ball Engine Company Erie steam shovel and a Department of Street Railways pick-up truck being used to dig a ditch along a residential street intersecting with Maryland Street, likely Charlevoix Street or Mack Avenue, for the installation of streetcar tracks. A group of men watch in the foreground. Behind the truck, a worker stands in the ditch with a shovel. A girl stands on the lawn of one of the homes across the street, beside piles of dirt. A sign on the side of the truck reads, "City of Detroit, Dept. of Street Railways, 82 Miles in 1921."
