Work Description:
|
This picture has no people In It. It looks like a picture taken about the time the construction was nearly complete Debris shows on the ground. Sandstone slabs for sidewalks are piled to the left of the main entrance and the basement window to the left of the front steps Is partially bricked up In a funny way. Iron plates holding the brick wall together are visible and curtains may be seen on some of the windows, so the building is at least partially occupied. In the left foreground is an upside down earth scraper which was the bulldozer of this period It is a broad flat steel "thing" like an oversize scoop shovel It was pulled by a horse, and the rope and pivoting iron attachment are under the device pointing to the left It was guided by a man holding on to two wooden handles which are also pointing left since it is upside down The man would steer the device and make deeper or lighter cuts by raising or lowering the handles. It was pulled until it was full of dirt and then was dumped by the man turning the handles upside down as you see here In front of the left staircase and running to the large porch is a sidewalk under construction. The guide string stretched between two stakes can be seen and the walk is partially complete. There are yet no braces to the big main chimney at the left.
