DescriptionThis image depicts the interior of one of the Hilton Hotel ballrooms at Second Street and Copper Avenue in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The room is set up for a large Rotary Club meeting. Numerous round tables with several chairs at each one can be seen dotted around the room. Each table is set up with waters, tea cups, plates, salads, bread rolls, and silverware at each place. The stage can be seen in the background. A podium with a microphone on it is visible. On the wall behind the podium is a large circular sign which reads "Rotary International. 45". Several chandeliers can be seen hanging from the wooden beams on the ceiling. The room is lined with large vertical windows that are each partially covered by curtains.
