Here's a description of the image:

This black and white image, possibly a photographic negative, depicts a construction scene. The view is taken from what appears to be a trench or excavation site, looking upwards towards workers and wooden structures.

Several figures are visible, many seemingly wearing overalls or work uniforms. The figures are somewhat blurred, suggesting movement or a longer exposure time. A notable figure in the foreground stands with an outstretched arm, possibly indicating or gesturing.

Below the workers, there's evidence of excavation and some kind of container, possibly a large pipe or a tank, resting in the dug-out area. A hose-like object is connected to the container.

The wooden beams and planks are arranged as a framework around the edge of the excavation, and the whole scene is lit in a way that suggests strong contrast.

Handwritten annotations are at the bottom and right corner of the image including "Breaking into old Lincoln Central Sq.", "June 15:10" and "4726".

Here's a description of the image:

This is a historical black and white negative of a construction scene. Several men are gathered around what appears to be a large cylindrical container, possibly a form for pouring concrete or another construction material. They are dressed in overalls and work clothes, suggesting that they are construction workers. Some are standing, possibly directing the work, while others are closer to the cylinder, seemingly involved in the process. There's evidence of a hose or pipe extending into the cylinder, and the area around it shows signs of materials being poured or mixed. The scene is framed by what look like large wooden structures or supports, common in early construction projects. The image has a slightly inverted or negative appearance, common for historical negatives. The handwriting in the bottom of the image appears to read "Breaking into old coin Central Sq." and "June 15, 10".
