DescriptionView of Albuquerque facing east from the rooftop of the Commercial Club, located at 201-211 South Fourth Street, New Mexico. The building is under construction with building equipment filling the rooftop. A construction worker stands with his hands on his hips and looks up at the camera. He wears a wide brimmed hat, button-down shirt, suspenders, and trousers. He has a long bears and mustache groomed to a point. In the distance, behind the man are small homes, dirt roads, and multi-story business buildings fading into the background with the Sandia Maintains emerging from the horizon.
