One black and white Polaroid photograph of a section of the Grand Trunk Railroad car ferry dock in Detroit which is being repaired by the Dunbar & Sullivan Dredging Company. The photo looks downstream and shows the Detroit River and ice floes in the foreground as well as new pilings and cross timbers for the seawall. Railroad tracks and cars can be seen on the adjacent shore and the Robin Hood Flour plant is visible in the background. Handwritten blue ink text on the upper and lower edges of the photo reads "Grand Trunk R.R. Car Ferry Slip, Detroit. DC 3986, Jan 19th, 1967," and "W. Hansen."
