The black and white photolithograph shows a side of a brick industrial building with three tall, multi-pane windows. There is an open space in the lower right that has a black railing running across the front of the picture plane from left to right. In the center three large pipes and one small emerge from the brick building to rise up or cross over and across the picture to the right side.
