A glossy black and white photograph of the construction of Highway 17. The photograph is taken from the perspective of the Main Street bridge. The Forbes Mill annex is in the right of the image, while the Los Gatos creek is in the cement channel in the left. The Footbridge crosses over the construction and the creek. The photograph is likely an enlargement, as there is a white border completely around the image.Photograph Details
