One black and white photograph of the Flynn Memorial Pavilion under construction on Belle Isle in Detroit. The view looks eastward across the construction site and shows workmen who are setting wooden forms for a concrete foundation. Piles of earth, lumber, and debris can be seen around the site. The old Belle Isle Pavilion can be seen in the upper left corner of the photo with Lake Tacoma visible in the center and right background. The Detroit River and Windsor, Ontario, shoreline are partially visible in the far background near the center upper edge of the photo. A small title block in the lower right corner has printed text that reads " City of Detroit, Contract No. PR-63, Flynn Memorial, Emil Van Sile Co., East from NW [Northwest] Corner Bldg., Photo No. 1, Date: 4-7-49, Lens-Art Photographers." The photo is mounted on white canvas and includes a canvas strip along the left edge to allow for placement in a binder or album.
