The black and white photolithograph shows a corner and two sides of a brick building with pipes down and along the building. On the left the side of the building is brick with an arched opening that has been bricked up. The side of the building on the right shows one arched window on the ground floor and two on the second floor. Pipes run across the picture from the upper left corner to the building then run down the side to a ninety-degree angled turn. The pipes wrap around the corner of the building and across the front on the right side.
