A black-and-white photograph showing a large tent encampment for workers on a hillside, likely related to the New Croton Dam construction. The camp consists of numerous white tents arranged in rows, with people and horses visible. In the background, there are hills covered with trees and what appears to be construction equipment or scaffolding on the left.
