Description:
A photographic slide in a small cardboard frame (off white with red rear text "Color Transparency"). The frame is labeled "Fed. Bldg 3/12/64" in handwriting. The image shows an aerial view of the Juneau waterfront and Indian Village area in the foreground, with the Gastineau Channel and the snowcapped mountains of Douglas Island beyond. At left in the foreground, there is a tall metal frame, the future Federal Building under construction. Surrounding it are a number of low lying private homes. A thoroughfare, perhaps Glacier Avenue, cuts through the center of the foreground, at right of the construction site. Significant glare from the sun affects the top of the image. The number "13" is printed in ink on the frame at the upper left.
