Photograph. Black and white photo showing work activity on the waterfront at the Detroit Edison Delray electric power plant. A crane is lifting a large cable reel while workmen and office staff observe. Other cable reels can be seen on shore near the base of a steel lattice transmission line tower. Power plant buildings can be seen in the background and the tugboat, G. F. Becker of Detroit, is tied up at the dock in the foreground. The tugboat and work crews are constructing aerial power lines across the Detroit 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.
