Photograph. Black and white photo showing a wooden barge of Candler-Rusche, Inc., that is anchored on the Detroit River just offshore from the Detroit Edison Delray electric power plant. The barge and its 5-member crew are assisting in the construction of aerial power lines across the river which will form an interconnection between the Delray electric power plant in Detroit and the Ontario Hydro J. C. Keith Generating Station in Windsor, Ontario. A steel plant on Zug Island can be seen in the left background area of the photo and the Delray power plant site (with coal pile) can be seen in the right background area.
