One black and white photograph (and two copies) of construction work that is underway for the new Civic Center redevelopment project in downtown Detroit. The view looks northeastward and shows a large area of excavation in the foreground along with an excavator, trucks, and a bulldozer. A portion of the Jefferson Avenue side of the new City-County Building (now the Coleman A. Young Municipal Center) can be seen in the left background. The side of the Old Wayne County Building can be seen in the center background and the fronts of commercial/office buildings along Randolph Street are visible in the right background.
