One black and white photograph of construction work that is underway for the new Civic Center redevelopment project in downtown Detroit. The view looks northwestward to the intersection of Woodward and Jefferson Avenues and shows a large area of excavation in the lower foreground. A steam-operated pile driver, pipe sections, a workman, and construction vehicles can be seen in the project area. The Guardian Building can be seen in the center background and the new City-County Building (now the Coleman A. Young Municipal Center) can be seen in the right background.
