One sepia-toned photograph showing two officials at the opening ceremony at the Springwells Water Treatment Plant in Detroit on May 17, 1935. The view shows two men who are dressed in dark business suits and are standing in front of a large control board at the new plant. Both men are wearing white "Committee" ribbons on their lapels. An adhesive typewritten label in the upper right corner of the photo shows "Official Opening, Springwells Station, May 17, 1935. View at Pumping Plant Switchboard." Small printed text in the lower right corner shows "120695." A black ink stamp on the verso shows "Manning Bros., Inc., Commercial Photographers, 333 State St., Room 505, Detroit, Michigan."
