The image is a black and white photograph depicting a scene of destruction and debris. The photo shows the side of a building with a brick wall and a window. In the foreground and continuing down the right side of the image, there is a significant amount of debris scattered along the ground, including bricks, wood, and other materials. The setting appears to be an urban area, as suggested by the multi-story buildings in the background.

Along the bottom edge of the photo, there is handwriting that reads: "Union Sq. grade crossing. Wall facing of Cor. blocks. Union Glass Co. Webster Av. 11-26-10" along with the number "3746".

The image is a black-and-white photograph of a building with a wall and a pile of bricks, taken from the outside. The building has a dark-colored wooden wall on the left side, with a window at the top. The wall is made of vertical planks, and the window has a small pane of glass.

A handwritten note at the bottom of the image reads: "Union Sq. grade crossing. Wall facing Fort. blocks Union Class Co. Webster Av." This suggests that the image may have been taken in a specific location, possibly in New York City, and that it may have been related to a construction project involving the Union Square grade crossing.
