This is a black-and-white negative image of a construction site. It appears to depict the building and infrastructure of an early railroad or elevated train station, likely in urban surroundings.

The architecture in the background showcases a large, prominent building with arched windows, decorative masonry, and a clock centered near the top of the structure. It has a classic, industrial-style design that suggests the time period might be from the early 20th century.

In the foreground, there is visible railway infrastructure, including tracks and beams, alongside scaffolding or structural framework under construction. Several workers can be faintly observed scattered throughout the scene. The negative format makes all elements of the scene appear inverted, with light areas shown as dark and vice versa.

Handwritten text at the bottom identifies the site as "New Track at Sullivan Sq." with the date "April 17.11," suggesting it is associated with Sullivan Square and taken in 1911. This may be a historic image documenting the construction of transportation lines in the area.

The image appears to be a negative photograph of a train station or railway construction site. At the center, there is a large building with an arched roof and several rows of arched windows. Above the main entrance of the building, there is a clock that indicates the time. The building architecture suggests it might be an early 20th-century design.

There are some handwritten marks on the bottom of the negative, reading "New track at Sullivan Sq." and a date "April 11, '11," which likely refers to Sullivan Square, suggesting this image might depict construction related to railway or transit systems in that area from April 11, 1911. The number "25158" can also be seen at the bottom right, possibly a reference or archive number.
